Regional Roadshow: Muswellbrook

Things are changing, and that means new opportunities are on the horizon. Instead of waiting to see what happens, let's take the lead and decide what's next for our community.

Join miners, local business owners, and your neighbours for a special, hands-on event to grow our town, our careers, and our futures. This is about real action and real results, driven by you.

A Sprint to Our Future: What's Happening?

Forget boring speeches and endless presentations. We're hosting a dynamic "Sprint Session with a Micro Pledge"—a short, sharp, and highly interactive workshop designed to spark ideas, create new businesses and forge connections.

• Date: Friday, 8 August 2025

• Time: 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM (Lunch is on us!)

• Venue: The Melt, Muswellbrook

This is a free event, but spaces are limited. Register today to secure your spot!

Here's the Plan: From Ideas to Action in 90 Minutes

This session is all about participation. We'll get straight to the point with a practical, hands-on approach.

1. Discover Your Talents: You have valuable skills and experience. We'll kick off by helping you identify and map out your greatest strengths. You've got them—let's put them to work!

2. Showcase Our Town's Strengths: Local businesses, this is your moment to shine! Show off your core capabilities and let the community see the powerhouse of expertise we have right here.

3. Explore New Ideas: Get inspired by our "Opportunity Walls." We'll have dedicated spaces showcasing emerging and growing industries with real potential for Muswellbrook, including:

   • Renewable Energy

   • Agri-tech

   • Tourism & Hospitality

   • Digital Services

   • Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering

4. Connect the Dots: This is where your future takes shape. You'll literally stick your talents and your business's strengths onto the Opportunity Walls, making instant, visual connections to where you fit in.

5. Make Your "Micro Pledge": Big change starts small. At the end of the session, you'll make one tiny, 7-day promise to yourself—a single, manageable step to explore an idea or a connection you've just made.
