The Hunter region has enjoyed steady growth over the previous 20 years due primarily to the expansion of the coal mining industry and the construction of supporting infrastructure. In September 2012 conditions changed as the mining companies wound back spending in new build, maintenance and day to day services. Remaining contractors have had face a cut in contract values and there has been minimal recovery due to the long term projections for the price of thermal coal.

Local companies will describe steps they have taken to reposition their businesses to grow and prosper and Darren will speak on the global engagement for achieved by ATSA/UVS as a niche manufacturing, service and technology company.
