The UK Government and the Railway Industry Association brought 11 leading UK rail companies to Australia and New Zealand to explore significant market opportunities and showcase UK innovation and capabilities ahead of AusRail, Australia and New Zealand’s premier rail conference.
AusRail is an international rail conference and exhibition, with attendees from across Southeast Asia, the Americas and Europe. Held in Brisbane from 5 to 7 December, the event will highlight nationwide opportunities in Australia’s rail sector.
The UK delegation will attend a special event in Auckland, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. They will participate in roundtables, hear and travel directly from City Rail Link, Auckland Light Rail, KiwiRail, Melbourne Metro Station, Invest Victoria, Austrade, Sydney Metro, NSW Rail Operations Centre, Queensland Rail and Trade and Investment Queensland.
The UK is a leading innovator in creating the modern, metropolitan spaces of the future.
Exploring the significant ANZ pipeline of over £100 billion invested in transport infrastructure, the UK Rail Mission Group will showcase the UK as a leading innovator in creating the metropolitan spaces of the future and a preferred partner for clean growth projects in the rail sector. The group will also highlight UK capabilities in the market ahead of AusRail, Australia and NZ’s premier rail conference.
The Australian and New Zealand rail ecosystem is rich. Heavy rail for freight and suburban metro systems, and investment heading light rail is a dual focus. The mission provides a convenient opportunity for UK companies to explore the Australian and New Zealand markets and engage with key rail sector decision makers and industry stakeholders.
Louise Cantillon, British Consul General and UK Deputy Trade Commissioner, Australia and New Zealand said:
Rail made the UK’s industrial revolution possible and rail can lead the green industrial revolution. The UK is a world leader in rail innovation and we are leveraging our expertise to invest in clean growth and the industries of tomorrow.
Free trade agreements have been negotiated in Australia and New Zealand, so the timing of this personal trade mission is ideal. Through these agreements, companies will be able to make contacts, build relationships and increase opportunities.
