City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Martin Zaiter said with major infrastructure delivered and more on the way, there is no time like the present for smart investors looking to the future.
"The time to invest in Parramatta is now and this forum will provide everyone with the tools on how to break into the Parramatta economy and enjoy a slice of the pie to remain successful for decades to come" Cr Zaiter said.
"The numbers speak for themselves - with a gross regional product greater than $28.86 billion it makes sense to bring your business to Parramatta."
