Business Finance Week

With a host of free nationwide and regional in-person events, webinars and more, Business Finance Week helps smaller businesses learn about the different finance options available to them to support their individual needs.

Whether an established business or looking to grow, finding information and guidance around finance can be complex and challenging for smaller businesses. Business Finance Week has been designed to help these businesses, as well as the organisations and people that support them, to understand the different finance options available to support their individual business needs. 

Starting your business

The first step is always the hardest, but many founders aren’t aware of the financial help that they can access to help them succeed.

From business loans and grants to angel investment and pre-seed funding, there’s a whole ecosystem of support available, but choosing the right product can be a challenge.

Listen to experts on how to access finance and find the right product to make your business dreams a reality.
