🌟 What an incredible evening at the Hunter Nexus Gala Dinner last night! 🌟 It was fantastic to hear Premier Chris Minns share his vision and insights for the Hunter Region. He emphasised how we can "feel a sense of optimism in the Hunter and Newcastle," highlighting the airport as "a big player in Newcastle with huge and exciting opportunities." Upgrades to the terminal building and runway, enabling international flights and freight facilitation are expected to generate approximately 4,400 jobs and $12.7B in economic activity over the next 20 years. It’s events like these that drive meaningful connections and innovative ideas, pushing the Hunter region towards a brighter future.
