On January 31st, the American Australian Association Business Council in partnership with the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade we held a business leader roundtable focused on investing in innovation. We were joined by the Honorable Ambassador Dr Kevin Rudd (Australian Ambassador to the US) and Los Angeles Deputy Mayor Erin Bromaghim.
It was a fantastic discussion moderated by Australian Consul-General, Los Angeles Tanya Bennett solidifying the key role Los Angeles plays in Entertainment, Sports and beyond. The dynamic conversation underscored the shared priorities between the US and Australia and the event boasted more female executives at the table than ever before. CEO of Ausfilm Kate Marks & FOX Vice President of Production & Post Technology Christian Kennel joined us as speakers. The event took place on the FOX Sports soundstage in Los Angeles on the studio lot – which created the perfect innovative backdrop for the conversation. Special thanks to FOX for hosting us in their fabulous space. The engaging conversation set the stage for our G’DAY USA Arts Gala the following evening on February 1st.
