2026 Next Crop leadership program
Expressions of interest are now open for the 2026 Next Crop leadership program, designed to build the skills, confidence and connections shaping the future of the Riverland wine community.
Delivered by Riverland Wine in partnership with Wine Australia and leadership program provider – Affectus, this program brings growers, winemakers and wine industry representatives together, as well as agricultural, tourism & hospitality professionals from the region, to think bigger, work smarter and contribute to what comes next for our region.
What you’ll get from the program.
-
Practical leadership skills you can apply in your business and day-to-day
-
Tools for decision-making, strategic thinking and navigating industry change
-
Access to a national network of peers, mentors and industry leaders
- A space to share ideas, challenges and solutions with others in the region
Why it matters.
The Riverland is built on the people behind it. Strengthening leadership across our region helps ensure we continue to adapt, grow and thrive – together.
Next Crop is about backing the people who want to be part of that future.
If you’re in the wine industry, agriculture, hospitality, tourism or marketing and ready to step forward, we’d love to hear from you.
Riverland Wine members will be given preference as spots are limited, though we strongly encourage all to apply.
