The Resource Industry Network (RIN) February Industry Briefing Luncheon at Harrup Park kicked off the year with a record sell-out of 120 attendees, welcoming both familiar faces and newcomers.
Keynote speaker Adam Lancey, Asset President of BHP Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA), provided an update on operations and the broader outlook for Queensland’s steelmaking coal industry.
Adam highlighted the importance of collaboration, saying, “Competitiveness requires collaboration… It requires a shared vision for Queensland’s future and the courage to make the changes needed to realise it.”
RIN General Manager Dean Kirkwood added, “It just shows the movements of the region, and their contribution back to ensuring that Mackay and the communities within our region are supported as well.”
The luncheon gave industry leaders a chance to explore key issues, including coal royalties, future investment, and how BMA is working with the regional supply chain.
