Breakfast with the ATO
Tax time is here. Payday Super lands on 1 July. And if you are like most small business owners, there is a good chance you have questions you have not had the chance to ask.
This is your opportunity.
The Southern Gold Coast Chamber of Commerce is proud to host Breakfast with the ATO, a practical, no-jargon morning bringing together our local business community, the Australian Taxation Office and one of Australia’s sharpest legal and governance minds for a genuine conversation about the things that matter most to your business right now.
Over breakfast at the Currumbin RSL, our presenters will walk you through the tools, resources, legal frameworks and programs available to help you meet your obligations, protect your business and grow with confidence.

Cups & Connections
This morning Southern Gold Coast Chamber event brings together local business owners, councillors, and state and federal representatives in a relaxed morning setting for the kind of open, honest conversation that actually moves things forward.
Over coffee and pastries, you’ll hear directly from a panel of elected officials on the infrastructure projects, regional developments and policy decisions shaping our corner of the Gold Coast, and what they mean for you and your business.
You can expect a 20 to 30 minute panel discussion with local councillors and state and federal representatives, followed by open networking in a warm and welcoming setting. No formalities, no jargon. Just real conversation over great coffee.
