Networking and Events

On 13 May, an intimate gathering of IAQ members attended an IAQ Boardroom Breakfast with Neil MacDonald CEO of NAIF.  Key takeouts from the event include:

• The NAIF team exists to support proponents with a high-risk tolerance for Northern Australian conditions and with an existing $4b commitment/investments. Queensland has the lion’s share with $1.8 billion secured for the state.
• NAIF have an appetite to do more and are open to projects in early stages and with needs such as early brokerage and/or finding financing sources to progress commitments.
• Foreign investment is a focus for NAIF and a role to open doors with other investment vehicles or private investment.
