Connect for Success at NSW Small Business Month in November

Organisations can apply for a grant to host an event or become a collaboration partner

27 June, 2022

The NSW Government will celebrate small businesses in November and make available grants of up to $5,000 to eligible organisations to host targeted events and activities as part of Small Business Month.

The theme for Small Business Month, “Connect for Success” refers to small businesses connecting with experts and their peers to learn new skills, discover new opportunities and grow their businesses.

Small Business Minister Eleni Petinos said: “The resilience, entrepreneurship and grit shown by our micro, small and medium sized businesses should be recognised and celebrated. I encourage everyone in our community to continue to support our small businesses and today reflect on the challenges and importance of our small businesses.

“We also invite Australia’s larger corporations to become Collaboration Partners in supporting NSW small businesses as they emerge from the extraordinary challenges of the past two years.

NSW Small Business month will be held closer to its original programming after the 2021 program was rescheduled to March 2022 on account of the pandemic.

Applications for grants will open on 4 July and close on 5 August 2022.
