We were honoured to be hosted at Parliament House on Tuesday night, for a small and intimate reception recognising the contribution of Greek businesses and professionals to the Northern Territory. 

Hosted on behalf of the Chief Minister by Minister Jinson Anto Charls MLA, the event highlighted the Greek community’s long-standing leadership, entrepreneurship and investment in the Territory.

The evening also acknowledged HACCI NT’s growing national and international role, including the NT holding the HACCI National Federation Chair in 2026, and our work to strengthen connections with European chambers and diplomatic partners.

The Australia–EU Free Trade Agreement was acknowledged as an area to watch for potential opportunities for Territory industries, with the Finocchiaro Government expressing its commitment to working with HACCI NT to support local businesses in navigating future developments.

We are grateful to all our members who came along. It was a valuable opportunity to reconnect, exchange ideas and strengthen our community ties.
