Superyacht Australia has joined the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI), giving the superyacht sector a stronger voice in national business advocacy.

ACCI's vision is to make Australia the best place in the world to do business, so Australians can have the jobs and living standards to which they aspire. It provides a voice for Australian businesses at national and global levels, mobilising the breadth, diversity and scale of its member network. Among ACCI's priorities are reform to address low productivity, the high cost of doing business and the growing burden of red tape, spanning productivity and growth, workplaces, open markets, and energy and environment.

Membership with ACCI will provide our Superyacht Australia members access to information and advocacy.
