Business forums, training & mentoring
Joining a networking group, business forum or advisory group offers many benefits for your business. It can allow you to share business ideas, receive guidance from peers and mentors and find out about emerging market opportunities, technological innovation and relevant programs and services.
A number of business and networking groups are active in the Macleay Valley. Several groups also facilitate information exchange between government and business.
