Australia House was the vibrant hub of Australian culture and business during the APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) Leaders Week in November. Located in the heart of San Francisco, Australia House provided a platform for fostering connections, promoting collaborations, and showcasing the best of Australia to APEC attendees.
The AACC was honored to collaborate with Austrade to deliver a successful week of activities for more than 450 attendees from both government and private sector. Over 4 days, Australia House hosted roundtables on climate tech, indigenous businesses, IP, supply chain, critical technologies, and the E3 visa. Activities also included an Aussie Club luncheon, evening receptions and wine tasting events. The headline event Ventures and Vino, gave attendees the opportunity to hear pitches from Australia startup founders whilst sampling some up and coming Australian wines.
The success of Australia House during APEC was made possible with the support of the event partners Fortescue, United Airlines, Trade & Investment Queenland, Uber, CSIRO, South Australia Trade and Investment, Invest & Trade Western Australia, Telstra, and LA Consulate.
