Foreword
On behalf of RMIT University I am delighted to welcome you to the2006 NEIS Small Business Directory.
This directory showcases an extensive range of new small businesseswhich were successfully established by entrepreneurial individualswith assistance from the New Enterprise Incentive Scheme (NEIS)program. I encourage you to support the small businesses listed.
RMIT has been delivering the NEIS Program on behalf of theDepartment of Employment and Workplace Relations (DEWR), since 1998. Over this period, our NEIS program has assisted in the establishment of over 1,200 new small businesses, the majority(over 80%) continue to operate successfully 15 months aftercommencement.
Congratulations to the small businesses listed in this directory. I highly commend your entrepreneurial spirit and the combination of hard work and perseverance you have put in to ensure that soundbusiness principles underpin the establishment and the ongoing operation of your business.
I wish you continued success in your business endeavours.
Professor Chris Whitaker
Dr Sharman StoneMinister for Workforce Participation
The Hon Dr Sharman Stone MPMINISTER FOR WORKFORCE PARTICIPATION
The Australian Government New Enterprise Incentive Scheme (NEIS)has helped deliver the dream of starting your own small business toover 100,000 Australians.
I want to congratulate all of the great new NEIS graduates featured in this, the 2006 NEIS Small Business Directory.
NEIS is the Australian Government's longest running and mostsuccessful employment programme. In 2006, NEIS celebrates it'stwentieth year helping thousands of people to step out into smallbusiness; a truly remarkable achievement.
With the excellent support of RMIT University, the NEIS graduatesshowcased in this directory have received business training,mentoring and financial assistance that has provided them with thebest possible chance of success. And succeed is just what most NEISbusinesses do, with many going on to employ other people -multiplying the programme's positive impacts.
My family has been farming for generations and for years I helped run a small publishing company. I am familiar with the hardwork and the trials, but also the deep personal satisfaction ofrunning a small business and seeing your enterprise grow.
On behalf of the Australian Government, I wish this year's NEISgraduates continued success in their business endeavours.
Congratulations and my very best wishes.
Dr Sharman Stone
