Christmas Drinks with H.E. Philip Green, Australian Ambassador to Germany, Online Event, December 2020

On Friday, the 11th of December, the German Australian Business Council, together with 50 members and friends, welcomed H.E. Ambassador Philip Green to Germany over an online Christmas drinks event. Over a glass of Alpha Box & Dice Wightmare Chardonnay from South Australia, the Ambassador gave an overview of Australia’s industry focus on advanced manufacturing and renewables, bilateral relations between Australia and Germany, and his priorities for his term, including the hydrogen supply chain and the AU-EU FTA. He also highlighted his interest in promoting Australian arts and culture as well as adopting a Team Australia approach for his term. The evening ended with the Ambassador sharing a series of Christmas dad jokes ahead of a lively interactive Q&A.

We look forward to working closely with Ambassador Green throughout his term in Germany. As we head into the holidays, we would also like to thank all members and friends for their support this year and wish all a “Guten Rutsch!”
