Policy & Advocacy

Our Policy and Advocacy work

The South Australian Business Chamber exists to create a stronger South Australia by supporting the business community and helping businesses to grow. 

As the peak body representing the interest of employers and business owners in SA, we advocate on your behalf.

Our team of experts obtains feedback from businesses on critical issues, then conducts research, analyses, and consults to determine our policy positions. Once we have identified a policy beneficial for the state’s business environment, we commence an advocacy campaign. Our advocacy efforts are tailored to each specific policy issue, ensuring that we adopt a targeted approach to influence the outcome in an efficient and effective manner. 

Our advocacy efforts include a combination of face-to-face meetings with ministers and other high-level decision-makers, presentations to the State Cabinet, media campaigns, opinion articles in prominent publications, and working together with other industry groups to present a united voice for business. 

Our policy and advocacy work is broad-based. We represent more than 3,000 members across 19 industry sectors, from the smallest micro-businesses to the largest multinational companies. 

We are a founding member of the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI), the South Australian Business Chamber ensures the voice of South Australian business community is heard through ACCI and acted upon at the national level.

At the South Australian Business Chamber, we’re for the many, not the few.
