Exploring robust pathways to sustainable Indigenous engagement in enterprise Despite Indigenous engagement being at the forefront of many political agendas, evidence would suggest Indigenous communities still lack exposure to education, employment and enterprise. This agenda tackles how to drive change and ensure the gaps in opportunity between mainstream and Indigenous Australia are well and truly closed.

The agenda focuses on: • Developing sustainable action plans that can withstand federal government changes • Education and employment as the building blocks for Indigenous economic development • Best practice examples showcasing success stories of Indigenous engagement and wealth creation • Growing capacity of Indigenous businesses ready for supply chains • The importance of mutually beneficial joint venture partnerships

“The Closing the Gap challenge is often described as a problem to be solved - but more than anything it is an opportunity. If our greatest assets are our people, if our richest capital is our human capital, then the opportunity to empower the imagination, the enterprise, the wisdom and the full potential of our First Australians is an exciting one.” - Malcom Turnbull, Prime Minister Who will attend? •• Federal, State and Local Government •• Indigenous & Non-Indigenous Businesses •• Job Support & Career Development Organisations •• Training & Development Organisations •• NGOs Who have responsibility for or interest in: •• Indigenous Policy •• HR, Procurement & Supply •• Indigenous Business Chains •• Corporate Social •• Indigenous Engagement Responsibility •• Economic Development
