Our City’s Economic Strategy 2020-2041

Our City’s economic strategy 2020-2041 sets out a long-term plan for Council, industry, and the business community. Its goal is to grow Moreton Bay’s economy.

The strategy aims to attract investment and create 100,000 new jobs to build a $40 billion economy by 2041. This will position Moreton Bay as one of Australia’s top 10 regional innovation hubs.

Its success depends on collaboration and support from all stakeholders. Council's Economic Development team helps keep this engagement strong.
