Greater Melbourne

|
Characterised by shaded boulevards, elegant streetscapes, the winding Yarra River and bustling trams, Melbourne’s CBD is a visual blend of old and new. Business standards however, are decidedly twenty-first century with four of Australia’s most profitable top five public companies headquartered in the city.
Greater Melbourne has a dynamic industry base. Businesses and researchers sharing a common market and support base have come together in clusters across Melbourne, notably in biotechnology, information technology and design.
An established infrastructure supports Melbourne’s highly educated workforce and world-class research institutions.
Flanking the CBD, the Port of Melbourne’s Fisherman’s Bend is a hub for advanced manufacturing and engineering specialists. The area is home to GM Holden, Hawker de Havilland and the Sir Lawrence Wackett Centre for Aerospace Design Technology.
