When the world's at stake, go beyond the headlines.
What if the real battlefield of great-power competition is the global flow of money? The ability to mobilize and direct large pools of public and private capital across critical industries — defense, infrastructure, manufacturing, and technology — is becoming the defining instrument of contemporary economic statecraft. These industries operate largely in private balance sheets and global supply chains, meaning governments should increasingly align national priorities with private investment.
In Australia’s big play in Southeast Asia, mobilising the private sector is critical
There is an unmistakable disconnect between Australia’s trade and investment flows and the geo-economic importance of Southeast Asia. The combined economies of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) equal the fifth-largest economy in the world, and yet Australia’s total foreign direct investment into ASEAN was less than Australia’s FDI into New Zealand last year.

Subsea high voltage cables are a must to meet net zero - so how can we scale it up?
When we talk about the clean energy transition, we talk a lot about the role of solar, storage and batteries. Something we don’t talk about as much is the silent evolution of high voltage direct current (HVDC) cables. They link electricity generation to where the power is needed – cities, regions, homes, industrial centres and so on. In the case of renewables, they are pivotal to take the renewable energy supply – generated from wind and solar – to grid networks and onto the consumer.
Indonesia’s G20 Presidency will set new heights for its world leadership - Australia should take heed
By Georgie Skipper. Seventy-seven years on from Independence, Indonesia is at the precipice of a new era, that could see it convert the challenges it has faced into opportunities that will embed its regional influence and leadership for the next century. Indonesia is already a significant leader in the Indo-Pacific, however its leadership in the next few decades could define the peace and economic prosperity of the region.
Indo-Pacific can be major hub for global renewable energy supply chain
When we look back on the first Sydney Energy Forum convened by the Australian Government and the International Energy Agency, it will be seen as a catalyst for a more interconnected and resilient energy grid capable of delivering renewable energy to the growing economies of the Indo-Pacific region.
Nation-building moonshots and why they matter
It is 52 years since the first person walked on the moon. The day that Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong and Michael Collins landed on the moon was one of the most significant milestones in human history. It created a reference point for past and future ambition. It set the tone for the type of ambition we crave in leaders, both governments and business.
