The Society of Plastics Engineers Australia–New Zealand (SPE: A-NZ) will hold its Economic Outlook for 2026 briefing on 26 November at the Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club in Melbourne.
The session is aimed at professionals across the plastics, manufacturing and related sectors seeking context on economic conditions that may affect operations, investment and supply chains in the year ahead.
The organisation says this year’s session will feature Alan Oster, chief economist at National Australia Bank, who will outline expectations for Australia’s growth, inflation, energy costs and business sentiment, along with international factors that may influence trade and supply.
SPE: A-NZ says the event will also provide an opportunity for attendees to reconnect with colleagues and exchange ideas.
The program will be opened by Hamed Ghajarnia, president of SPE: A-NZ. The event runs from 7am to 9.30am AEDT.
