About Us
NSW Government is determined to unlock the potential and grow jobs across our 24-Hour Economy. As we rebuild from the COVID-19 pandemic, supporting a vibrant, safe and diverse 24-hour economy will enhance NSW’s standing as a global destination.
To help us achieve this, a 24-Hour Economy Group was established in 2021, comprising a diverse range of stakeholders to support the delivery of the 24-Hour Economy Strategy, and a range of other workstreams and initiatives.
The group works closely with the Office of the 24-Hour Economy Commissioner and other NSW Government stakeholders. It provides a platform for stakeholders to submit ideas and feedback, based on the views and experiences of their communities.
