“It’s fantastic to also see the diversity of the companies that entered the awards this year,” Mr Baker said.

“The awards acknowledge and celebrate the success of NSW companies internationally. They also encourage business not currently exporting to think global.”

Mr Baker said exporters made a significant contribution to the NSW economy each year, with goods and services exports worth $89bn in the 2017-2018 financial year.
