The Territory Growth Initiative Investment Committee has been appointed to unlock private investment.
Supporting jobs, regional growth, and economic certainty across the Territory.
Independent expert advice to fast-track high-value projects and business expansion.
The Finocchiaro CLP Government has appointed the Territory Growth Initiative (TGI) Investment Committee to unlock private investment, drive economic growth and create jobs across the Northern Territory.
The six-member committee will provide independent advice on investment opportunities, helping to accelerate projects and support high-growth businesses to establish and expand in the Territory.
This is about building a stronger economy and giving businesses the certainty they need to invest, grow, and create local jobs - particularly in regional areas.
Minister for Trade, Business and Asian Relations, Robyn Cahill OAM, said the appointments bring together deep expertise to support the Territory's next phase of economic growth.
"These appointments ensure we are drawing on strong financial, legal and commercial expertise to identify real investment opportunities that benefit Territorians," Minister Cahill said.
"We are focused on delivering a stronger economy by making the Territory an even better place to invest, do business and create jobs.
"This is about backing projects that unlock growth across our regions, support local industry and deliver long-term economic outcomes, while recognising there is more work to do."
The Territory Growth Initiative supports transformational projects and high-growth businesses that align with the Territory's economic strengths, including tourism, resources, and infrastructure.
The Investment Committee will review all TGI applications and provide independent recommendations to Government. This includes recent advice supporting a $10 million concessional loan for the Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa Signature Walk, a project expected to deliver a $22.8 million tourism boost to Central Australia.
Committee Chair, Mr Bill Reeks, said the committee would play an important role in strengthening investment outcomes.
"This committee brings together diverse expertise to ensure investment decisions are well-informed and deliver strong economic and social outcomes for the Territory," Mr Reeks said.
The committee comprises experienced leaders across finance, law, infrastructure, and Aboriginal economic development:
