Ines Liu to lead strategic engagements across Melbourne and Sydney.
Ines Liu, Head of the Australian Client Services Desk at Dezan Shira & Associates, will be visiting Australia from 12th to 28th August, covering Sydney & Melbourne, to engage with key clients, partners, and stakeholders. This visit underscores our ongoing commitment to supporting Australian businesses with their investment and operational strategies across Asia.
For over three decades, Dezan Shira & Associates has been actively facilitating Australian foreign direct investment (FDI) into Asia, with a particular focus on China, ASEAN, India, and Vietnam. Amid shifting geopolitical dynamics and evolving tariff structures, Asia remains a stable and high-potential region for Australian enterprises seeking to expand, diversify, and future-proof their operations.
Strengthening Ties Amid Evolving Trade Dynamics
Australian businesses stand to benefit significantly from deepening engagement across Asia, as bilateral partnerships with key Asian economies continue to grow:
- India: The Comprehensive Strategic Partnership and the ECTA are unlocking new growth channels in trade and investment.
- China: China remains Australia’s largest trading partner, with ChAFTA supporting stronger trade ties since 2015. As the agreement marks its 10th anniversary in 2025, there is growing optimism for deeper cooperation and new opportunities moving forward.
- Vietnam: Vietnam: A rapidly strengthening partnership, now elevated to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with a clear plan of action. Both countries are focused on doubling investment and advancing into each other’s top 10 trade partners.
- ASEAN: A pivotal region for Australia’s trade diversification, strengthened by AANZFTA and RCEP frameworks.
This trip is not only an opportunity to strengthen ongoing partnerships, but also to provide on-the-ground insights into Asia’s evolving business landscape and the practical pathways available for Australian businesses.
Highlight Event:
As part of her visit, Ines Liu will also deliver a keynote address at the Australia-China Economic, Trade & Investment Expo (ACETIE) 2025, where she will share strategic insights on cross-border opportunities and regional trends.
If Asia is part of your business strategy, whether you're already active in the region or exploring new opportunities, Ines will be available for in-person meetings to discuss your plans.
