DBrief Podcast by Australian Industry Group
DBrief, the business podcast from Australian Industry Group is for business people with a keen interest in understanding the connection between their individual business operation and the broader issues of Industry Development, Industry Policy and new government regulations.
Via an engaging and informal interview format, DBrief will investigate:
- What is happening in Industry Policy, and what does it mean?
- Where are these issues going, and what do I need to know?
- What do I need to think about and learn, in order to stay abreast of- or even ahead of- the emerging issues and developments?
By understanding the answers to these questions, business operators can stay ahead of changes and market movements, and be better prepared for Digitalisation, Decarbonisation and Diversification in their business and their market sector.
The podcast is designed to provide Australian Industry Group members and other business owners with a useful and timely insight into the changes in policy and regulations, and what is means for business.
