What does the KDCCI actually do?

A Chamber’s role isn’t to be the centre of the story. It’s to help local businesses move forward.

That means creating connections, representing local perspectives, providing practical support, promoting local capability and working towards a stronger, more resilient regional economy.

Some of this work is highly visible. Much of it happens behind the scenes through conversations, introductions, advocacy and helping businesses find the right information or opportunity.

Because businesses shouldn’t have to navigate opportunities and challenges alone. When local businesses are connected, confident and supported, our whole region benefits.

Strong communities are built by people and organisations willing to step up for others.

The Best Community Organisation Award recognises organisations making a meaningful difference across Karratha and the Pilbara through their services, programs, support and contribution to our community.

We’re pleased to have Saipem Clough SCJV as a Major Sponsor of the 2026 Business Excellence Awards and sponsor of this important award, helping us recognise the community organisations whose work strengthens the places where we live and do business.

Behind every strong regional economy is a strong community, and this award is an opportunity to celebrate the organisations and people helping make that possible.

29 September is the date to watch as we reveal this year’s Business Excellence Awards finalists. And if you’re planning to join us for the big night, stay tuned. Ticket release details are coming soon. 👀

Do you wish you felt more confident taking photos for your business?

You don’t always need a full photoshoot to capture something worth sharing.

Sometimes it’s a quick team photo, a product, an event or something happening during the day that you want to document well.

That’s why we’re teaming up with KDCCI for Ready, Set, Shoot! 📸

Our team will be running a hands-on workshop to help local businesses feel more confident taking photos for their business.

You’ll walk away with practical techniques you can use straight away, a better understanding of what makes a strong photo, and more confidence capturing the people, products and everyday moments that are worth sharing.

No photography experience needed.

👉 If you own a business, manage socials or are usually the person asked to take the photo, this workshop is for you!
