Upcoming Events
and Meetings

Running a small business in 2026 is genuinely tough.
Fuel costs are squeezing your margins. Payday super lands on 1 July. ATO debt is a reality for more businesses than anyone is talking about publicly. Supply chains remain under pressure and finding and keeping good people has never been harder.
You don’t need another event that simply acknowledges the problem. You need one that actually helps.
That’s exactly what Winning Work is.
Presented by the Southern Gold Coast Chamber of Commerce in partnership with RDA Gold Coast, this relaxed seated luncheon brings together senior government representatives, industry specialists and funding bodies in one room, on one afternoon, over a genuinely good lunch at one of the Southern Gold Coast’s most beautiful venues.

The Panel
A focused, conversational panel featuring senior specialists and elected representatives tackling the issues hitting Southern Gold Coast businesses hardest right now, including fuel supply and cost pressures, workforce relations and employment regulations, ATO obligations and payday super readiness, procurement and tendering opportunities, and small business grants and funding.
No jargon. Just practical, honest answers to the questions you are actually asking.

The Activation Tables | Your Grant Hub
This is where the afternoon gets genuinely valuable.
A curated series of activation tables gives you rare, direct, face to face access to the government agencies, funding bodies and specialist advisors that can make a real difference to your business. Think of it as a Grant Hub where you can sit down, ask the hard questions and walk away with contacts, resources and next steps you can act on immediately.
Tables will cover areas including small business support programs, grants and funding opportunities, state and federal government programs, procurement and tendering, energy costs and sustainability, export advice and funding, training and workforce development, and regional investment and business growth support.
These are conversations that would normally take weeks to arrange. On 22 May, they are all in the room with you.

Who Should Attend
If you own or lead a small or medium business on the Southern Gold Coast and you are feeling the pressure of the current environment, this afternoon is for you. Whether you are chasing funding, navigating ATO obligations, preparing your business for payday super, trying to hold onto your team or simply wanting to know what support is actually available right now, Winning Work is built to give you real answers and connections you can use immediately.
Open to Chamber members and the broader SME community. Everyone is welcome.
