The Showcase Event for Victorian Small Business

The Greater Shepparton City Council is proud to be a participant in the Victorian Government’s Energise Enterprise 07 – Victoria’s Small Business Festival – the showcase event in 2007 for people looking to start or build their small business.

The four week festival in August will encompass over 400 events across metropolitan and regional Victoria and will create many opportunities for our small businesses to be inspired, informed and improve their management skills.

Greater Shepparton Business Centre Coordinator Rochelle Vick says a major objective of the Council is to assist small business operators to build their business.

“The Festival offers Victorian small business operators or people thinking about starting a business a great opportunity to gain awareness and take advantage of the wide range of assistance and information available,” says Ms Vick.

“The festival program reflects the energies of a wide-ranging group of community and business groups and government agencies committed to encouraging and assisting the development of our dynamic small businesses.”

Several events will be held in Shepparton during the festival, including workshops and seminars on business planning, tax basics and record keeping and agreement making and workplace relations.
