IN-PERSON EVENT | Navigating the future Australia-China relationship – Risks, rewards and the case for building resilience | ACBC Vic and ANU
Please note this is an in-person event in Melbourne and will not be live-streamed.
A post-election briefing focussed on the impact of Australia’s political and policy trajectory with China.
China offers both the prospect of massive rewards and potential exposure to significant risks.
The Australia China Business Council Victoria (ACBC Vic) is pleased to host an industry seminar in collaboration with the Australian National University (ANU) to discuss the future of the bilateral relationship within the post-election context.
From China’s politically motivated trade restrictions to heightened Australian government and public scrutiny of connections with Chinese businesses and entities, engaging with China means navigating a dynamic interplay of rewards and risks.
Added to this complexity, Beijing, Canberra, Washington, and other capitals are quickly sharpening their policy tools and preparing for more adversarial relations between China and many liberal democracies, including Australia.
This workshop will explore how business and other stakeholders can manage the challenging trade-offs between rewards and risks and build resilience as they engage with China.
With a post-election focus on the impact of Australia’s political and policy trajectory, this workshop will also sketch the most likely scenarios for the Australia-China relationship in 2022 and beyond.
Please note this is an in-person event in Melbourne and will not be live-streamed.
