On behalf of the IAG Conference Committee, I am delighted to extend an invitation to attend the IAG 2018 Annual Conference, to be held at the Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort on the Gold Coast from 21 - 23 November 2018.

The IAG Conference is an annual event exclusively for accounting, finance and governance professionals and the conference agenda is designed to inspire and inform, covering recent challenges and current trends in public sector finance.

The 2018 Conference will cover topics that will challenge you to update your knowledge, skills and expertise in finance, accounting and governance. You will hear from our business leaders, industry experts and inspirational speakers, and be able to join the discussion with our experts on emerging issues and trends impacting the State's public sector.

You will also be provided opportunities to hear how you can develop your skills in leadership, communication and management, and to make these transferable across a range of professional areas both within and outside of government.

Over the three days of the conference you will be able to choose from more than 30 sessions, so you can tailor your own unique conference experience. Take the opportunity to network with your colleagues across government as well as our private sector sponsors during a coffee break, or take part in the social events, including two charity dinners on Wednesday and Thursday nights.

The IAG 2018 Annual Conference will provide you with all the information you need to position yourself to respond to an ever changing environment and a sustainable future - it's an event you cannot miss. We look forward to seeing you on the Gold Coast in November.
