Overview
The Australian wine industry has never faced a wider array of challenges and questions than in 2008. Issues of the environment, sustainability, regionality, profitability and climate change will affect us all. Outlook 2008 will take a three-pronged approach in discussing the questions foremost in the minds of the Australian wine industry looking forward.
To set the scene, Outlook 2008 will address the here and now, by considering the economic overview and the perennial question of supply and demand.
What does the future hold for a regional winemaker in terms of profitability, production, markets and growth?
An “on the couch” discussion, moderated by Michael Pascoe, will debate the optimal harvest size for the Australian wine industry, in the context of our environmental footprint, branded business opportunities and the number and structure of grapegrowing and winemaking enterprises.
Since 1994, the Wine Industry Outlook conference has delivered relevant and challenging agendas for winery executives, winemakers, marketers, strategists, stockbrokers, analysts and investors.
To be held in conjunction with the Maurice O’Shea dinner the night prior to the conference, Outlook 2008 will again address key issues for the Australian wine industry.
