It’s back to business for more than 30 exhibitors taking part in this year’s Greater Western Water (GWW) Business Expo in Sunbury.
On Thursday, May 26, local businesses will be given the chance to find new customers, learn how to improve conversations, use social media effectively, build cyber resilience, future proof their workplaces and practice networking at Hume Global Learning Centre.
The expo will bring together a panel of business leaders including ANZ’s Jac Phillips, Vic’s Food and Cuisine’s Vic Scerri, Sunbury Coaches’ Matt Baird and Family Success Stories’ Graeme Lofts, to chat about resilience and sustainable business.
Sunbury Business Association (SBA) and president Michael Osborne said the organisation is “very proud” to be presenting the program.
“Recent surveys have indicated that this type of event is what small business needs to help them get back on their feet and build strong resilient businesses,” Mr Osborne said.
“Business owners, you have asked for it and a small group of volunteers have provided the forum, so please mark it in your diary as a must attend event.”
The event will go ahead with sponsorship from GWW, Hume council, Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health, Greenlink Solar, Sage Business Group, Elders Insurance and Sunbury Line Upgrade.
There will also be three breakout workshops – Customer Conversions with Social Commerce, Building your Business’s Cyber Resilience and Future Proofing your Workplace.
The program is part SBA’s aim to support local businesses and encourage the community to shop in the town.
