An Entrepreneur Championing Rural Australia: “The Regions have the Solutions to the Worlds Problems” with Julia Spicer

Humans of Agriculture

I am so excited to share this episode with you. Julia Spicer is one of those people you meet and you instantly feel like you’ve known them for years.

She’s a true champion and advocate for rural Australia, the people within these communities and is eager to see innovation unlocked and enabled.

Believing that rural communities needed vibrant and viable businesses to keep rural communities going she founded Engage and Create Consulting. She is also Queensland’s Chief Entrepreneur.

Oli caught up with Julia in his recent trip to Goondiwindi where they chatted about her life, her journey into a career in Ag, her passion into seeing regional communities thrive now and into the future and how she manages to be an influential voice for regional communities.

Julia is action focused, believing that actionable influence in business in the bush is just as powerful as being in politics, and that this influence enables regional leaders to have a seat at the table as key decision makers.

In this episode we talk about:

Bush Businesses, Rural communities, Championing Australian Agriculture, Business development in Regional Australia, Innovation in rural Australia.
