Speaker - Peter Lawley GEBC
GEBC Strategic Plan is a 2 year look ahead for how the GEBC can support decision making for Gosford, Erina and surrounds.
Today we were privileged to have Peter Lawley, President of the Gosford & Erina Business Chamber (GEBC) to present the GEBC Strategic Plan for 2023.
In his talk, Peter highlighted the key focus areas of the plan, including better business, infrastructure, industry, tourism, and education. Through the plan, the GEBC is working to make Gosford and Erina a better place to do business, attract industry to the region, develop and promote tourism, and make Gosford a university town.
Peter also highlighted some projects that are already underway, such as the Kibble Park upgrade, Safer Cities Her Way, and the SCRAP Committee, as well as projects that are in the pipeline, such as the Business Improvement District Pilot EOI, Night Time Economy Discussion Paper, University and TAFE, Gosford Waterfront, Venues Live/Central Coast Stadium Events, Carparking and use of Baker Street, Gosford Cenotaph, and Presidents Hill and Rumbalara.
In addition to speaking about the GEBC’s projects, Peter also spoke about his role as CEO of Legacy on the Central Coast. Legacy is celebrating their ‘Centenary of Legacy’ this year, and a torch relay is underway throughout Australia. The torch will pass through Gosford on the 15th July 2023, and Peter is seeking volunteers to help with the Gosford Leg of the Relay. Register here https://legacytorchrelay.com.au/volunteering/
We are very grateful to Peter for taking the time to share the GEBC’s Strategic Plan and to discuss his work with Legacy. We look forward to seeing the plan come to fruition over the next few years, and to continuing to support the great work of the GEBC and Legacy!
