VIP Invite to Boardroom lunch - Stakeholders across South Africa Australia bilateral business relations.

1. The retail environments in South Africa
and Australia share similar opportunities
as well as challenges. A number of
Australian retailers have a strong
presence in South Africa and, reciprocally,
South African retailers are investing
strongly in the Australian retail sector.
These bilateral opportunities make for
interesting conversations and dialogue.
Our guests will represent participants
from both Australian and South African
leadership.
Please join us for a delicious lunch and a
drop of Australia’s and South Africa’s fine
wines. We respectfully suggest rugby
union is not to be on the conversation
agenda!
The NORA Leader Lunch Series is aimed at retail
leadership in Australia, engaging with the sector’s
foremost thought leaders over lunch. The event is
invitation only with a select group of attendees,
ensuring optimum engagement and discussion.
Kindly observe our Chatham House rules.
