We were absolutely thrilled to hold our first CBH Wheatbelt Future’s Forum last week at Muresk Institute and it being a sold out event.

There was a wealth of information, guest speakers and networking opportunities abuzz throughout the whole day and we have received some fantastic feedback to ensure this becomes an inaugural event for businesses in the Wheatbelt to attend.

We would not have been able to bring such a successful day without the support of our sponsors: CBH Group, NBN, Regional Tech Hub, Bendigo Bank (Mukinbudin, Goomalling, Toodyay, Gingin and York), ODIS, Department of Home Affairs, AusIndustry, ASIC, Small Business Development Corporation WA, Chalice Mining, Evoke Living Homes, DomeShelter Australia, Infinite Green Energy, Wheatbelt Development Commission, The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, Avon Community Development Foundation, Avon Valley Toyota, Telstra, Purslowe Tinetti Funerals and Rural West.

We believe that we are stronger working together, and this could not ring truer with the collaboration between the Wheatbelt Business Network and the Northam Chamber of Commerce to bring this event to life.

A special shoutout also needs to be extended to Kitty Prodonovich (Regional Chambers of Commerce & Industry of WA), Muresk Institute, the Shire of Northam, Wheatbelt Audio Visual and Rebecca Parkhouse Photography. Without these amazing professionals the event would not have run as smoothly (even with the power outage).

Thanks again to all those that supported the event with their attendance, with this being sold out it shows that events like this are needed for our region and we will endeavour to continue to put our members first and make our region a better place to be.
