Small business owners across Hume flocked to the Town Hall Broadmeadows on Wednesday, September 6, to network and learn the ins and outs of owning a business.
More than 250 people attended the event, including people from micro enterprise, home based businesses, start ups, as well as those wanting to start a small business.
Hume Mayor Joseph Haweil said small businesses are the lifeblood of the local economy.
“Our Small Business Festival event was a fantastic opportunity for new business ideas to be heard and budding entrepreneurs to ask questions and make their mark,” he said.
“Small businesses [also] support the creation of many local jobs for our diverse community.”
The event covered topics including council services and permits, tax obligations, digital marketing and social media, legal contracts, terms and conditions, accounting and bookkeeping, starting a business and how to scale up a microenterprise.
The event was a Holmesglen event which Hume council hosted. Holmesglen runs the Self Employment Assistance Program, which is designed to assist aspiring entrepreneurs to start their own businesses.
