00:17 Very importantly for Experience Co,

00:19 this is the very first investment

00:21 that we've made as a company into Canberra and the ACT.

00:25 The reason we've done that is very simple.

00:27 We think that over the last 10 years,

00:30 Canberra as a destination has really transformed

00:32 from its world-class airport,

00:34 its fantastic food and wine offerings,

00:37 its vibrant cultural event scene,

00:41 the sporting event scene,

00:42 it has become a destination that is synonymous

00:45 with everything that Australia has to offer

00:47 as a tourism destination.

00:48 Having great new attractions like this one

00:51 provides impetus for more hotel investment,

00:56 which in turn, I think,

00:58 supports our broader tourism economy.

01:00 So what you're gonna be hearing from me

01:02 in the coming days and weeks

01:05 is a real focus on our tourism economy.

01:08 And today is a really fantastic practical example

01:12 of a world-class tourism operator

01:15 with an established network of fantastic facilities

01:19 wanting to invest in Canberra.

01:25 Great! There it goes.
