HunterNet: 30 Years of Industry Collaboration Transforming the Hunter Region

HunterNet emerged during BHP Steelworks’ closure when Joss Julius and business colleagues united through “the power of many” collaboration philosophy. Defying predictions of Newcastle’s demise, they’ve spent 30 years as chameleons, adapting continuously.

Now one of Australia’s leading industry clusters, HunterNet represents regional interests globally, nationally with politicians, and grows ecosystems. HunterNet Group Training, formed 25 years ago during BHP’s withdrawal, creates industry opportunities through skilled resources whilst celebrating gender diversity in traditionally male-dominated sectors.

Their horizon approach plans three, five, and ten-year stages toward 30-year goals. Over three decades, the corporate IQ of businesses has improved immeasurably—companies are sophisticated, regionally engaged, and internationally connected.
