Event Focus – Lord Mayor’s Business Awards 2017

With a global outlook, exceptional industry strengths and a new world city edge, Brisbane is enterprising, energised and the ideal environment for fostering economic development and nurturing innovation – a key driver of sustainable growth, productivity and prosperity.

Brisbane’s economy is driven by a strong service industry sector and is attracting international recognition for its thought leaders in key emerging knowledge sectors including digital industries; food and beverage manufacturing; innovative manufacturing; logistics and distribution; mining technology and services; infrastructure and clean technologies. The Lord Mayor’s Business Awards are an important platform to acknowledge the enormous contribution of businesses and individuals to Brisbane’s economy and the city’s profile as a vibrant centre of innovation and enterprise. In October this year LOUD events delivered a black tie gala dinner alongside Brisbane Marketing’s Event Team to acknowledge the businesses that make up Brisbane.  This year attracted nearly double the nominations of previous years.
