From the PublisherThe nerve and growth of Australia's economic links with the nations of the European Union and its neighbours is demonstrated again by the agency of the latest Australian Export Awards. More than half the 60 finalists in the nine categories have the EU/UK region as a principal or substantial market. For similar high-value exports as software, wine, high-tech ferries, TV programmes, tourism, vehicle parts, smart cards, pharmaceuticals and engineering services, the European region proffers large and growing markets for Australian exporters. And increasingly they are taking advantage of them.

It was also real appropriate that the achievements of Pipers rivulet founder and chief winemaker, Dr Andrew Pine, were recognised in the Australia Day Honours. Dr Pirie, who has combined the best European wine traditions with the best of Australian technology and taste, received a well-deserved AM (Medal of Australia) award. sum of two units other Australian economic links with EU are reported in this issue of Europe Business Review.
