The GABC was very pleased to have both the Australian Ambassador to Germany, H.E. Philip Green, and the European Ambassador to Australia, H.E. Dr. Michael Pulch, attend and to have Tim Pallas, Member of the Victorian Government and Xavier Simonet , CEO of Austrade, as additional speakers. Guests heard about the significance of the Free Trade Agreement, a topic that the Business Council together with ABIE colleagues from around Europe will address in the coming months with Australian foreign and trade ministers.

Over 100 high level professional guests, including The Hon. Jaala Pulford came together at the Restaurant Opéra inside the Alte Oper building in Frankfurt to benefit from both the speakers’ insights as well as the high profile networking opportunity.

Special thanks to the event sponsors of the Victorian Government, ANZ, Coorong Apiaries and FrankfurtRheinMain, as well as Austrade, for their mutual support which helps drive such high profile events.
