The Victorian government is encouraging small businesses to add one more skill by participating in this year’s Small Business Festival.

“Victoria has over 495,000 small businesses all vying for a competitive edge in our successful economic landscape,” said the Minister for Innovation, Services and Small Business Louise Asher.

“The Victorian Small Business Festival offers prospective and current small business owners and their employees access to a range of seminars and workshops that will boost their skills base for growth and ongoing success.” With over four hundred plus workshops running, small businesses are encouraged to register online to gain that competitive edge.
