Investment attraction

The Office of the Coordinator-General is the Tasmanian Government's 'one-stop-shop' for major or strategic investments.

The Office takes an active approach to the identification, promotion, attraction, facilitation and aftercare of investments that best leverage Tasmania's advantages and resource endowments.

The Office’s activities include targeting potential investors; identifying particular investment opportunities and communicating these; and the general promotion and development of Tasmania as an attractive investment location.

A number of key industries have been identified – including food and agribusiness, in particular the dairy, fruit and wine sub-sectors; mining and mineral processing; advanced manufacturing; forestry and related products; digital industries and contact centres; and tourism infrastructure.

The strategy for attracting investment includes:

• promoting Tasmania as an attractive destination for investment
• direct identification and contact with targeted potential investors, including investment missions interstate and abroad
• Investor targeting and engagement nationally and internationally
• an investor development program
• delivering our promotional messages through partners including Austrade offices in key markets
• representation at key seminars and investment events, such as exhibiting at the China Mining Congress in Tianjin, China
• Ministerial Roundtables
• inward visit programs for key investors and investment influencers.
