Growing your business can be difficult without access to trusted expertise or answers to your business questions.
Established regional small businesses seeking growth and innovation can now access the WA Leaders Connect Series program at a subsidised rate, thanks to the support of the State Government through the SBDC.
An online membership program designed to assist regional small businesses to grow and innovate, the Connect Series offers a pipeline to key business expertise. Participants will have access to the knowledge and support needed to drive growth, innovation and opportunity, backed by a community of peers.
The SBDC is offering a subsidy of $500 towards the total cost of the program to up to 90 regional small businesses. A co-contribution of up to $500 (plus GST) is required for participants to secure their place.
The Connect Series program complements the SBDC’s existing statewide network of business advisers, Business Local, which offers free support, information and low cost business skills workshops from small business experts in regional communities.
