We're well-known and respected for our work in the defence space and have connections in the aerospace, maritime, land and cyber domains. Our experts are driving growth in this high investment area and facilitate many project opportunities.

We're increasingly building strong knowledge and representation in this area and at various energy forums. Our focus is on diversification rather than replacement in all areas of this emerging market, in particular hydrogen, solar, and on and offshore.

We help businesses become advanced 4.0 manufacturers by sharing knowledge and giving them the tools to adapt, pivot, streamline and refine their products and processes to meet industry requirements both today and into the future.

Without major infrastructure being initiated in the Hunter region, opportunities for industry will be limited. We have this knowledge and representation within our network and can support all member businesses in this critical area.

A healthy planet has become a priority in industry, and we directly support and facilitate in this area. Bioengineering, sustainability, renewable energy industrial precincts and circular economy industry are part of our day-to-day activities.

HunterNet has been exploring international opportunities and facilitation to export and invest in foreign opportunities since 2015. We’ve conducted trade missions and made representations in countries across the APAC region.

Some very innovative Medtech leaders and capable businesses are emerging in the Hunter and our midst. Combined with the Medical Innovation Task Force, we have the opportunity to lead the collaboration with industry.

While we have some connectivity to agribusiness leadership, it's an emerging focus for the network. We're looking to grow our expertise and knowledge in this area. Long-term, we're looking at alignment with other regions to grow opportunities.
