South Australia - World-Wide Winners in Sport and Recreation. World-class sporting venues, a beautiful capital city, superb wine country, the outback, a magnificent coastline and much more. If South Australia sounds more like a holiday destination than a business center - you're half-right.


But behind the beauty and lifestyle of our great State lies a strong business community - professional, motivated, world-class and cost-effective.

When the Royal family in Brunei go for an early morning stroll, they're on a track from Playsafe in Adelaide. When the players tee off at the Guangzhou South China Golf Club they're playing on a course designed and built by Golf Strategies from South Australia. When the fans check the action at the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix in Melbourne, they're looking at a screen from Adelaide's Clipsal Vision. And when they're off and running in the Melbourne Cup, starting gates from Steriline in South Australia get them on their way.

South Australia has a small population and its industries and businesses, including recreation and sport, have therefore adopted a productive, creative and competitive approach with a strong export focus. In fields as diverse as luxury yacht building and sports medicine, there is a South Australian business with expertise and international experience backed by a supportive Government infrastructure.

Put them to the test - or even better, visit us to see what your future partners and the State of South Australia have to offer.
