Providing business networking opportunities

Welcome to the Australian British Chamber of Commerce — the leading business executive network between Australia and the UK.

We connect people and organisations in Australia wanting to do business in the UK and Europe. We promote the UK as the gateway to Europe for Australian business and Australia as the gateway to Asia for British companies.

Traditionally based on bi-lateral trade links between Australia and the UK, the Australian British Chamber of Commerce [‘ABCC’] now works with organisations with broader links in the UK and within the Australian business community.

Our aim is to provide opportunities for companies to develop their trade and investment interests through top-level networking events. We provide access to leading figures in business and government across all sectors, as well as VIPs, cultural and community leaders in both countries.

We are a national organisation with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. Our head office is in Sydney. The Chamber celebrates its 100th year in 2010.

The ABCC enjoys a close relationship with the British Consulate-General and UK Trade and Investment, the British Government’s trade promotion and investment service in Australia. We operate joint programs with these organisations and with the British Council to encourage cultural exchange between Australia and Britain.

The National Patron of the ABCC is the Sir Rod Eddington. He is committed to helping strengthen and build Australia’s commercial relationships with Britain through his active support for the ABCC and its activities.

Our members represent a wide range of industries including banking and finance, professional services [legal, business advisory and accounting], communications, government, environment, trade and export, hospitality, transport, and manufacturing industries.
