With locations in Cairns, Gold Coast and Brisbane, these expos bring together industry experts, government representatives and service providers to share practical insights and support.
Each expo offers a structured program including presentations from experienced business leaders, panel discussions with small business operators, and hands-on workshops focused on building capability. Attendees can also access one-on-one support, including mentoring, financial counselling and cyber security advice, making it a valuable opportunity for businesses at any stage.
