ABOUT MEA
With Australia looking at emerging export markets post the pandemic, the MEA region is poised to provide a plethora of trade and investment opportunities for Australian businesses, primarily in priority sectors – food and agri-, energy, mining, education, advanced tech, and health sectors.
In addition, niche opportunities in the defence, space and infrastructure industries are prevalent in key markets in the region.
At the events, Austrade and Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade (DFAT) representatives from MEA will also highlight the geopolitical landscape, partnership engagements, and on-ground support available for Australian companies.
