A strong turnout yesterday for the 2026 Australasian Investor Relations Association (AIRA) Small and Micro-Cap Seminar at ASX, bringing together issuers, advisers and capital markets experts to tackle one of the sector’s biggest challenges: standing out in a crowded market.   From compliance and disclosure through to marketing-led investor relations, the afternoon focused on how smaller companies can move beyond the basics and take a more strategic approach to building visibility, credibility and long-term shareholder growth.   Highlights included an ASX Supervision update from Michelle Milligan, an investor engagement and marketing-led IR discussion with Mahendra Tharmarajah from Airtasker and ▲ Ben Williamson from InvestorHub, insights on accessing capital in Asia from Maggie Au at FCR (Financial & Corporate Relations), and a capital strategy session with Natalie Raynor at ASX and Diviya Patel from Morgans Financial Limited.   Key themes included: • Taking a more strategic, marketing-led approach to investor engagement • Making the most of limited resources to drive stronger IR outcomes • Navigating capital opportunities across Asia • Understanding how high net worth investors and family offices assess small cap opportunities   Thank you to AIRA, our speakers and all attendees for the valuable insights and discussion — and great to continue the conversation over networking drinks.   #AIRA #ASX #SmallCaps #MicroCaps #InvestorRelations #CapitalMarkets
