Bendigo’s vibrant and innovative small businesses play a crucial role in keeping our economy strong and Be.Bendigo is working harder than ever to help them succeed.One of the great privileges of my job

is that I get to meet so many small

businesses and see first-hand how hard

they work and how important they are to

our local community.

As Be.Bendigo undertakes the role of

delivering the Bendigo Small Business

Festival for the first time, we are delighted

to work with partners and members to roll

out some truly transformational events.

Be it our workshops, key note speakers or

networking opportunities, we aim to not

only up-skill our emerging and existing

small businesses, but also inspire them to

continue to be innovative, remain relevant

and be best positioned to tackle the

challenges of business tomorrow.

A real focus of this year’s festival will be

how emerging technologies are affecting

small businesses and how we can harness

them to improve productivity and open

up new opportunities. Other initiatives

celebrate the contribution of women in

business, build capacity for not-for-profits

and highlight support for trades.

One of the great strengths of Bendigo is

that we are an open, globally connected

and diverse business community.

This year’s festival will celebrate the

diversity of Central Victorian businesses

and there will be sessions on how we can

tap into international networks to track

business trends and access new markets.

Be.Bendigo will continue to engage with

its members, partners and community

stakeholders, be the peak organization

for business in Greater Bendigo and

contribute on all levels to a vibrant and

prosperous local economy. Through our

connections with the private and public

sector we will strive for collaboration,

advocate for all our businesses and

leverage investment for Greater Bendigo.

We are very excited to be steering the

Bendigo Small Business Festival and

look forward to welcoming our business

community to the festival launch on

Monday 23rd July.

Whether you are running a small business

or thinking about starting one, I encourage

you to get involved in this year’s festival and

look forward to meeting many of you there.

Dennis Bice

Chief Executive Officer
