About the Conference
As PNG’s premier international investment event, the Business Advantage Papua New Guinea Investment Conference is renowned for its engaging program and high calibre of speakers.
Hosted by PNG’s leading business media, this professionally-curated conference promotes business and investment opportunities in PNG, showcasing a wide range of industry sectors right across the economy.
This year’s event will also feature a bonus Pacific Islands Business Briefing, with updates on neighbouring economies such as Fiji and Solomon Islands.
Who attends?
The conference attracts some of the most dynamic companies in the Asia-Pacific, as well as government and global institutional investors. Delegates range from key industry thought-leaders, to company heads, senior executives, investors and board members.
‘Expo Plus’
We only include an Expo when we can do it properly and this is one of those years. ‘Expo Plus’ will be located in the large foyer immediately outside the main conference hall (the Boulevard Auditorium), and will include hand-picked exhibitors, a ‘Made in PNG’ aisle and, of course, a pop-up café sponsored by Airways Hotel.
