Industry missions and trade and investment focus sectors

A thriving NSW economy benefits everyone, creating more and better jobs, improving the way we make and do things, and driving the prosperity and wellbeing for the people of NSW. Higher productivity means higher wages and a boost to living standards for everyone in the community.

We have all the right ingredients for success – a world leading university and research sector, the largest concentration of venture capital in Australia, a highly skilled workforce and globally competitive businesses that are pushing the boundaries of innovation.

Building a better NSW with a thriving economy

The NSW Government has the strategies in place to achieve our vision:

• The NSW Industry Policy is the overarching framework to promote collaboration across industry, the innovation sector, and trade businesses to give firms the confidence they need to invest and grow in NSW.
• The NSW Trade and Investment Strategy 2035 sets clear targets to grow and diversify exports, attract investment and support more NSW businesses with their international growth objectives.
• The NSW Innovation Blueprint 2035 lays out a positive agenda to cement NSW as the innovation powerhouse of Australia and a global leader in high-value industries.
• The Investment Delivery Authority will offer a pathway to fast-track major projects from the private sector that are aligned with the government’s priorities.
• The Tech Central Economic Development Strategy for Australia’s largest and most significant innovation district will unite world-class research, industry-leading businesses, and essential infrastructure to turn bold ideas into global success stories.
