The Start Your Own Business Expo – Australia’s leading event for aspiring entrepreneurs has today announced an exciting new feature aimed directly at tradies who are ready to take the leap from employee to business owner. The Tradie Pavilion will sit within the existing expo and showcase suppliers that help tradespeople move into their own business.
Visitors to the event will be able to discuss their plans with exhibitors and attend free seminars and workshops. Exhibitors will include business advisors, equipment suppliers, financial services, marketing agencies, software providers, trainers and more.
They can also visit the Franchising Expo, running right alongside, to discover existing business opportunities that provide another path into business ownership.
Event Director Tim Collett says, “Every year we meet thousands of Australians who dream of being their own boss. Tradies are among the most motivated and capable future business owners in the country. The Tradie Pavilion gives them a focused space to learn, connect and find the partners they need to launch and grow.”
Patrick Moore, Senior Strategic Partnerships Lead at MYOB says, “the show is a great place for aspiring business owners and sole operators to access the support and tools they need to set up their business, under one roof.”
“Starting a business can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to setting up and sorting out the admin.
At the expo this year we’re looking forward to showcasing Solo by MYOB, our all-in-one app for sole operators. To help new business owners hit the ground running we’re offering a free 12-month subscription to Solo by MYOB for all visitors”.
The exhibitions are running together from 1-2nd August at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre. They are open to anyone thinking about starting, scaling or buying a small business. Organisers expect over 100 exhibitors and 3,000 visitors across two very busy days.
A small number of exhibition stands remain available in the Tradie Pavilion. If you want to meet tradies and everyday Australians ready to take the next step you will need to act quickly.
