Victorian business welcomes Victoria's first Aboriginal Economic Strategy

VECCI congratulates the Victorian Government on the launch today of Victoria’s first Aboriginal Economic Strategy.

“It is important that this strategy provides a framework to support the future growth and development of Victoria’s Aboriginal businesses,” says VECCI Chief Executive Mark Stone.

“The effective linking of education, employment opportunities, business enterprise development and investment will be vital to ensuring Victoria’s Aboriginal-owned businesses reach their full potential.”

VECCI provides strong support for Victoria’s Aboriginal business community through its Aboriginal Business Advisor Program (ABAP), which is supported by the Victorian Government.

The ABAP provides a range of mobile and tailored support for operators or those wanting to start an Aboriginal-owned business in Victoria, including business and personal coaching, business tools and information, and networking workshops and opportunities.

Further information about the program can be found at www.vecci.org.au/abap
