In this episode of the Greater Springfield Business Connect Podcast, Matt Taylor-Farrington is joined by Councillor Pye Augustine to explore how the Ipswich City Council is shaping Greater Springfield into a thriving hub for small and micro businesses.
Councillor Augustine shares insights into the region’s economic landscape and unpacks the council’s Economic Development Strategy 2023–2027, centred around People, Place, Prosperity, and Partnerships.
