The Economic Outlook for Industry in 2025

Register now to hear an analysis of Australia's economic outlook in 2025, and how business can adapt to navigate a more challenging environment.

Feb Ai industry outlook

Australian industry had a tough year in 2024, as the slowing economy, lingering inflation and tight labour market dragged on business performance. As industry leaders prepare for the ambiguities of a federal election year, and global political and economic uncertainties continue to mount, many are concerned that 2025 will bring much of the same.

More than 220 senior leaders from across Australia industry responded to Ai Group's annual Industry Outlook for 2025 Survey, a must-read resource to understand how industry plans to navigate the opportunities and challenges facing the Australian economy.

Industry leaders are making near-term productivity a priority to meet the challenges of this environment. They plan to invest in process improvement to improve efficiency, upgrade the skills of their current workforce, and grow their investment in technology.

Ai Group analysts will be joined by special guest speaker Amber Rabinov, Head of Macro Research & Strategy at AustralianSuper, who will look beyond our research to longer-term trends such as geopolitics, demographics and the energy transition, and their implications for the global macroeconomy.

This event is presented in partnership with AustralianSuper
