What will Noosa look like in 2050 – and what does that mean for your business and our community today?

For SMEs, these changes are not something to start thinking about in 2050. They are already influencing the decisions business owners, employers and community leaders need to make today.

The Noosa Chamber of Commerce & Industry invites you to a special Noosa 2050 “The Cost of Doing Nothing” Business Breakfast designed for Noosa’s small and medium-sized business community — join us for one of the most important conversations this region will have.

GUEST SPEAKER

SIMON KEUSTENMACHER

Co-Founder & Director, The Demographics Group

Simon is one of Australia's most sought-after voices on population trends, the future of work and longrange economic forecasting. Trusted by governments, corporations and community organisations alike, he has a rare talent for turning complex data into clear, engaging insights that businesses can actually use.

Over a sit-down breakfast, Simon will explore the trends that matter to Noosa and what they could mean for recruitment, customers, education and skills, investment, growth and the facilities and services our community will need in the decades ahead.

Business Breakfast

$95pp for NCCI members

$125pp for Guests

Attendance is limited to 100 people.

WHAT DOES NOOSA'S FUTURE HOLD?

This is not simply a conversation about Noosa in 2050. It is about the business and community decisions we need to start making now.

Where will your future workforce come from?
How will an ageing population change your customer base?
What happens when younger workers and families can no longer afford to live locally?
Will Noosa have the education, training and career pathways needed to retain young people and develop the skills businesses will need?
How will population and demographic change affect demand for sporting, recreational and community facilities?
How will changing demographics affect consumer spending?
What new opportunities will emerge for businesses and organisations that understand what is coming?

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

Business owners, retailers, hospitality and tourism operators, health professionals, schools, education and training providers, sporting organisations and clubs, property and development professionals, professional services firms, employers and entrepreneurs.

The breakfast will also be relevant to young business leaders and emerging professionals, and to anyone involved in decisions about Noosa’s future workforce, education and skills, sporting and community facilities, housing, services and long-term economic prosperity.
