A colourful and cosmopolitan city
Sydney, the capital of the state of New South Wales, is the oldest city in Australia. Surrounding one of the most spectacular harbours in the world and flanked on three sides by large wilderness areas. It offers citizens and visitors enchanting park-lands and beaches, world-class shopping facilities and restaurants, and great late night bars and clubs.
With a population of over four million, Sydney is a vibrant, multicultural city boasting world-class cultural and educational institutions, and is the commercial heart of the nation. It’s no surprise Sydney is the number one destination for overseas tourists.
Greater Western Sydney
The Greater Western Sydney region is the home of Western Sydney University and stretches from Parramatta, the geographical centre of Sydney, to the Blue Mountains on the western edge of the metropolitan Sydney area.
Greater Western Sydney is a global centre for trade, innovation and learning with the third largest economy in Australia. Of the top 500 companies in Australia, 150 are based in the area, making it the ideal location for future leaders.
