Speakers
Speakers at the breakfasts have included leaders such as Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione, Governor General David Hurley, Vice-Chancellor of Sydney University Michael Spence, the then Reserve Bank governor Glen Stevens and recently retired NSW Premier Mike Baird. In 2016 the new NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian was one of those who prayed at the breakfast. A testament to the importance of the breakfast is that these speakers, in most years, have continued to attend the breakfasts to be a part of this significant annual gathering.
The speaker for 2023 will be Amy Brown. Amy has had a 25-year career in law, finance, consulting and government. She is currently Chief Executive Officer of Investment NSW. Prior to this role, Amy was Deputy Secretary at the Department of Premier and Cabinet. Amy has also been a Partner of PwC Sydney, worked in infrastructure finance at NSW Treasury and Barclays Bank, and as an infrastructure lawyer at a number of top tier law firms.
