Small Business Festival events in Shepparton

Greater Shepparton will host several Small Business Festival events throughout August that have been developed in partnership with a number of organisations from across the region.

The festival features an extensive program of business events providing inspiration, ideas and information for anyone starting or building a business.

The annual festival comprises more than 500 individual events held in venues throughout metropolitan, regional and rural Victoria. Greater Shepparton will also host two events as part of the Women in Business week from 14-20 August.

Greater Shepparton City Council Director Sustainable Development Johann Rajaratnam said the Shepparton Small Business Festival aims to promote networking opportunities and improve the overall productivity and growth of small businesses in our region.

“I encourage all small business owners to get involved in the festival and take the opportunity to hear from some experts in their fields or even just network with other small business owners. These types of events can be a valuable source of ideas to enhance and grow their businesses” Mr Rajaratnam said.
