Sydney’s business events industry gets multi-million-dollar kickstart
Today’s launch of the ‘Business Events Industry Support’ package by the NSW Government will play a significant role in firing up business confidence and will stimulate conversion of pent-up demand for in-person engagement, according to the State’s global bidding specialists BESydney. From early April, $5.5 million in funding will be made available to support business events, conferences and conventions across Greater Sydney and NSW, as part of a major COVID-19 response package designed to encourage people back into the Sydney CBD in particular, and support jobs in the accommodation, entertainment, and tourism and business event sectors.
