Registrations Now Open Business leaders, investors, government representatives and industry professionals from Fiji, Australia and the wider Pacific are invited to register for the 2026 Fiji-Australia and Australia-Fiji Business Councils Joint Business Forum, taking place at the Grand Pacific Hotel in Suva from 27–29 August 2026.
Hosted by the Fiji Australia Business Council (FABC) and the Australia Fiji Business Council (AFBC), the flagship three-day event will provide a unique platform for leaders to connect, exchange insights and explore new opportunities for trade, investment and economic cooperation between Fiji and Australia.
Under the theme “Strategy for a Shifting Landscape,” the 2026 Joint Business Forum will focus on how businesses can adapt to changing global and regional conditions, build stronger partnerships and position themselves for future growth.
The Forum programme will feature keynote presentations, expert panel discussions and networking opportunities with senior decision-makers across key sectors including trade, investment, tourism, infrastructure and business development.
Discussions will also explore emerging opportunities linked to regional growth initiatives and the lead-up to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, which is expected to create new opportunities across multiple industries.
“The Joint Business Forum brings together the people and organisations shaping the future of Fiji-Australia commercial relations. It provides an important opportunity for businesses to build connections, gain insights from industry leaders and identify pathways for collaboration and growth,” says FABC president Himen Chandra.
The Forum further strengthens the renewed Fiji–Australia Vuvale Partnership, highlighting the shared commitment of both countries to deepening economic cooperation, promoting investment, and supporting sustainable private sector growth across the Pacific.
President Himen and the Executive members would like to thank all the generous sponsors supporting the 2026 Joint Business Forum; Westpac, Digicel, Swire Shipping, Vision Group and Pleass, whose valued contributions are helping make this important business event possible.
