The Australia Pacific Islands Business Council (APIBC) signed two Memoranda of Understanding with the Niue Chamber of Commerce and the New Caledonia Chamber of Commerce and Industry Trade and Invest, strengthening regional business ties and bringing the total number of such agreements to 11.
The conference saw strong participation from Pacific Island chambers of commerce and private sector representatives, reflecting the private sector’s active role in shaping infrastructure priorities.
Over 40 exhibitors presented technologies and services in areas including renewable energy, digital connectivity, water, transport, and construction.
