Tasmania, Australia’s island state, offers many opportunities for investors.  Business confidence is high and there are plentiful, cost-competitive energy sources from natural gas and hydro electricity.  Ship building, mining, energy, aquaculture, gourmet food and wine, information, tourism, and biotechnology are among the sectors which provide opportunities for investors.

The state’s Department of Economic Development supports investment by nurturing the business environment, an export-focused culture, industry clusters, and networks and alliances.
