In a changing and challenging global environment in recent years, it has become more important than ever for leading Queensland companies to identify new markets and ways in which to meet international demand for the best our state has to offer. Being involved is a great way for regional and rural exporters of all sizes to showcase their achievements, meet other exporters and be exposed to the services of Trade and Investment Queensland that hosts the awards. The Premier of Queensland’s Export Awards are run in collaboration with Austrade and the
Australian Export and Investment Awards. Category winners are automatically entered as Queensland’s representatives at the national awards. Submitting an entry to the Premier of Queensland’s Export Awards is straightforward and involves collating information that illustrates the company’s achievements and performance. A guide and range of information to support submitting an entry is available from TIQ. Entries are open until 10 June.

Every week hundreds of volunteers give freely of their time to contribute to the Noosa community in some way whether it be helping others, protecting the environment, through entertainment, art, sports or scientific endeavours. Noosa recognised the contribution to our community of almost 40 volunteers in a celebration created by Noosa MP Sandy Bolton to mark Queensland Day. I had the honour to attend the event on Monday night and be reminded just how nice it is to pay tribute or just thank people for what they do, particularly those who expect nothing in return. It was a busy weekend in Noosa filled with events such as the Winter Hill Climb, Come Together Festival, Pink Stumps Day, Arts & Crafts All Fired Up exhibition. It was just like Noosa pre-Covid. And there are more activities on the way, many having been put on hold for two years due to the pandemic. The Noosa Jazz Party will be back in August. And it’s wonderful to see there’s a new festival in Noosa - the Italian Food and Vino Festival. I’m looking forward to Noosa taking on a European flavour for a weekend and to tasting some delicious dishes and fabulous deserts from our Italian chefs, and to some Italian-styled entertainment.
