Member testimonials

“The City of Bunbury was a foundation member of BGEA more than 25 years ago. The Bunbury Geographe Economic Alliance is a unique organisation that brings together Local Government and industry in a formal partnership to drive the economic development of the region.

For the City, BGEA’s ability to bring the Local Governments of the region together to work strategically for the region has strengthened that voice at a time when all regions around Australia are competing for resources.

BGEA has also been successful in supporting the attraction of new industries to the region which has had positive economic and social benefits for the City.

Other targeted programs such as StudentConnect and Study SW have lasting benefits to the next generation of Bunbury residents. I encourage any organisation or business that is looking at growth opportunities in the region to reach out to BGEA.”

“RCR values its membership with Bunbury Geographe Economic Alliance (BGEA) because it keeps us closely connected to our community, regional industry leaders, and the key economic challenges and opportunities shaping the South West.

Through BGEA’s strong engagement with industry and government, RCR is better positioned to support sustainable outcomes across mining, defence, rail, renewable energy, and advanced manufacturing, while helping drive long-term regional growth and local employment.”
