Perth - a well connected 21st century city

While Perth might be one of the most isolated capital cities in the world, it boasts an ever-growing, diverse and strong network of national and international connections that would be the envy of many much larger capitals. Western Australia’s economy is driven by the mining and resources sector. Its highly specialised and multicultural, skilled workforce, associated industries and the exchange of goods and knowledge have helped transform Perth into a highly competitive, liveable and well-connected city.
