The poll, by Roy Morgan Research, provided a snapshot into the pre and post pandemic comfort levels relating to a range of different gatherings. Events of up to 50 people were cited as suitable by 51.6 per cent of the 1,007 people surveyed.
Compared to other Australian states, NSW had the highest comfort level when it came to business events, with a 48.9 per cent rating.
Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres said: “It’s pleasing to see confidence increasing in NSW when it comes to getting back to business and attending events in-person.
“Getting people and businesses back together is vital for our economy and we’re focused on increasing this activity and bringing key events to our city and state."
BESydney CEO Lyn Lewis-Smith said the research provided real-time insight into Australian sentiment as the community continues to navigate COVID.
“Confidence has started to turn a corner and the need and desire to come back together both personally and professionally is rising - we expect to see that come through as increased meeting bookings in the months ahead.
“Business events have a major role to play in domestic and international economic recovery bringing organisations back together with their people, their suppliers and clients and their professional communities,” Ms Lewis-Smith said.
BESydney has encouraged businesses to get back to meeting again through their latest campaign, It’s got to be Sydney. For more information, go to www.meetinsydney.com.au.
