We are still coming down from the celebrations of the biggest business event on the calendar - the 2024 Coastline Greater Port Macquarie Business Awards.

We are thrilled to have Coastline announce the renewal of their Naming rights Sponsorship of the Business Awards for the next 3 years, and would like to sincerely thank all our sponsors, entrants, attendees and all who helped us pull together a very successful celebration of our shining stars.
