Join us for an exclusive Executive Breakfast with Cathy Raper, Chief Negotiator for Australia for the Australia–EU Free Trade Agreement at the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), as she shares insights on the future of trade relations between Australia and the European Union.

Following the recent re-engagement in negotiations, this session offers a timely opportunity to hear directly from the lead negotiator on the challenges, opportunities, and potential impacts of a successful agreement on trade, investment, and regulatory cooperation.

The conversation will also explore the role of government-industry collaboration in advancing Australia’s economic and strategic interests in Europe.

We will also welcome Mr Crispin Conroy AM, State Director, NSW State Office of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and Ms Skye Reeve, Director, International Intellectual Property Section at the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).

This closed-door breakfast will bring together senior executives, institutional representatives, and business leaders with a strong interest in bilateral and multilateral trade relations.
