​​The Summit 2025
27th & 28th October 2025
Wonnarua Country - Hunter Valley, NSW
Anigunya - Welcome
The NSW Indigenous Chamber of Commerce Inc. (NSWICC) proudly hosts The Summit on Wonnarua Country—the land of majestic rivers and timeless mountains. In a spirit of deep respect, we honor the Wonnarua People, the traditional custodians of this sacred land. We pay tribute to the Creator, Biame, and to the Kawul, the wedge-tailed eagle, whose vigilant presence serves as a protector and guide. We also acknowledge the enduring spirits of our ancestors, whose legacy paves the way for today’s elders and inspires the emerging leaders of tomorrow.​​​​​​​

Purpose
Despite a robust pipeline of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander owned businesses ready to serve a wide range of government and industry contracts in NSW, actual procurement spend remains below its potential. This gap exists because both sides of the supply chain often lack the capacity or capability to fully engage with one another, even as targeted procurement policies and RAPs are introduced by governments and the broader business community.
As the peak body and authoritative voice for Indigenous business in NSW, NSWICC has developed an innovative partnership program and service model designed to bridge these gaps. Our approach equips government and industry buying organisations with the tools they need to overcome barriers and unlock opportunities—be it to supply, employ, or invest in local capacity. The Summit is a cornerstone of this initiative, providing an essential platform for networking, trade opportunities, shared learnings, and leadership through real-world success stories.
In addition, the annual Summit 2025 Awards serve as a testament to our commitment, recognising outstanding achievements and innovations that drive growth and engagement within the vibrant Indigenous business community.
Join us for The Summit 2025 and be part of a united legacy for change!
