Pilbara Summit 2025: Key Insights and Priorities for Regional Growth

KDCCI attended the Pilbara Summit last week to stay informed on the major developments shaping our region. Our CEO, Sarah Whelan, also presented on behalf of the Pilbara Chambers Alliance, sharing key advocacy priorities for the business community.

Here’s what stood out:

Investment certainty is critical – “certainty is the new currency”

Major project updates from Rio, Woodside, and BHP

Housing is both a constraint and a major enabler of growth

First Nations leadership is vital to the clean energy transition

Regional chambers are aligned on priorities like housing, insurance reform, and childcare

We’re committed to advocating for policy that supports inclusive and sustainable growth in the Pilbara.
