Business Sydney's primary role is advocating, influencing and delivering policies and outcomes to drive economic growth. [7] The organisation aims to advance Sydney as a global, competitive and liveable city. [1]

As an advocate for Sydney as a competitive and livable global city, the Chamber makes policies focused on reforming the city's local governance, urban renewal and planning reform, recycling state assets to fund new transport and infrastructure projects, and supporting the evolution of Sydney as a leading service economy with a strong reputation in the arts, tourism, and international education.[ citation needed ]
