Serving as you President has been a privilege and a rewarding experience. I’ve enjoyed working with our members, building relationships and driving initiatives that have strengthened the Australia China commercial partnership. While we have achieved a lot, there is more to do in exploring fresh approaches to the relationship in changing times. I’m excited about what lies ahead and would be grateful for the chance to continue serving, listening and advocating for your interests. Thank you for your support! |

David Olsson
International Director, King & Wood Mallesons |
It has been an honour for me to serve as a director and Vice President at ACBC over the past two years. Together with fellow directors, our staff, and many volunteers, we have made a positive difference in stabilising and enhancing the bilateral business relationship. I have actively contributed to a series of high-level dialogues and events, including Canberra Network Days. As an experienced board director and investment professional, I have also contributed to strategy, governance, financial, and operational matters. We have achieved a lot over the past year, and we have many opportunities ahead. I seek your support to serve another year as your Vice President. |

During the meeting, we welcome questions from members and proxies, and there will be an opportunity to ask questions via the chat function on Zoom. Please ensure the question relates to the business under consideration at the meeting and is relevant to members as a whole. We will endeavour to address as many questions as we can during the meeting and may group questions together to be answered. If we don’t address your question during the meeting session, we will look to answer the question directly with you after the meeting.
If a technical issue arises during the meeting, we will assess the impact of the technical issue on members attending as a whole and the extent to which participation in the business of the meeting is affected, and the Chair will determine whether to continue or adjourn the meeting as they see fit.
