Exciting times are ahead for FBA in WA and indeed nationally as we welcome our new CEO and new State Chair’s from each of the states within the last 12 months. We will be launching some new initiatives which I am sworn to secrecy about for the moment (but watch this space) and looking to partner with other WA organisations to deliver increased benefits to our members and theirs.

There is a feeling of positivity amongst members as we have put on a number of very successful events this year, started our fourth forum group and now look to grow our general membership significantly in 2017.

We have also welcomed our new state sponsors Adapt By Design, ProcessWorx, 101 Business Radio and Lavan Legal. The Hall of Fame was a great night and it was wonderful to see the emotion of the inductees as they paid credit to those who have helped them succeed throughout generations of ownership.

My thanks to our committee who have worked well all year to support Lorraine in her tireless efforts for our members. If you would like to get involved with helping FBA in WA but can’t spare the time to be a full committee member, then speak to Lorraine who can put your name forward to be part of one of our ‘Working Groups’ who work on important short term projects.

See you in 2017.
