PNG Industrial and Mining Resources Exhibition and Conference (PNG Expo) is thrilled to welcome the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) as an association partner for the 2026 event.
This partnership further strengthens the event’s position as the leading platform for business, trade and investment in Papua New Guinea’s (PNG) mining and resources sector.
Austrade, the Australian Government’s trade and investment development agency, plays a critical role in helping Australian businesses expand internationally while attracting productive foreign investment into Australia. Through services including trade support, investment facilitation and market insights, Austrade enables meaningful global business connections.
Australia’s Trade and Investment Commissioner to PNG, Esther Sun, said Austrade welcomed the opportunity to partner with PNG Expo 2026.
“This premier event for trade and investment in Papua New Guinea’s mining and resources sector is an important forum for Australian exporters and investors looking to build on existing relationships or to establish new ones,” Sun said.
“Facilitating those business connections is core Austrade work and having a strong presence at the Expo will help match Australian trade and investment ambitions with opportunity.
“Australia and PNG are sovereign partners who enjoy a strong and enduring economic relationship. PNG Expo 2026 will help reinforce our connection in a key industry sector that is vital to the economic prosperity of both our nations.”
Austrade’s involvement will bring invaluable insight into cross-border collaboration and international investment, supporting PNG Expo’s mission to connect industry leaders, innovators and investors from across the region.
This partnership highlights PNG Expo’s ongoing commitment to facilitating growth and innovation across the mining, resources and industrial sectors. Attendees can expect interactive exhibits, live demonstrations and high-value networking opportunities designed to spark collaboration and unlock new pathways for business and investment.
With Austrade on board, PNG Expo 2026 is set to deliver even greater opportunities for Australian and international businesses to engage with PNG’s thriving industrial and resources sectors.
