Our focus is on building long-term partnerships through policy clarity, responsive governance, and a future-ready ecosystem that enables innovation, job creation, and sustainable growth. The roadshow provides an important platform to align industry aspirations with the state’s development priorities and to ensure that investment proposals translate into timely and meaningful outcomes.”
