Do it in Douglas: Meet Byron

Local Business Series
“When you live in Port Douglas you don’t need too many clothes and you definitely don’t need shoes.” Byron Kurth proves success in business doesn’t have to come with a suit.
Mr Kurth is principal of Managing Australian Destinations (MAD), an established destination management company working with corporate, business, and special interest groups Australia wide.
With his work being so diverse, he could be flying out to the reef or Cape York by helicopter or he might be dining with the leading cardiovascular surgeon of Australia putting together his conference.
As part of the ‘Do it in Douglas’ campaign, Douglas Shire Council, Tourism Port Douglas Daintree (TPDD) and Douglas Chamber of Commerce have launched a new series of storytelling videos that shine a light on local entrepreneurs and talent.
Do It In Douglas is about encouraging growth and prosperity in the Shire’s small business community.
The launch of nine videos will take people into the lives of those that have realised success in business and life. It also gives an inspiring and equally realistic insight into what it’s like to do business in Douglas.
