The Palawa Business Hub is a place of connection and opportunity.
We exist to explore and offer culturally appropriate support and pathways for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander business owners and entrepreneurs to create, innovate and thrive.
Our vision
A connected, vibrant, and growing community of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses across Lutruwita/Tasmania.
Our mission
To support and showcase Aboriginal businesses across Lutruwita and provide them with the resources to strengthen and achieve their vision.
Our goals
- To connect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to tailored advice and solutions to grow and meet their business needs through relevant training offers and workshops.
- To recommend specific support services and opportunities to connect through mentoring and hosting networking events.
- To provide accessible information for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to achieve their business goals with confidence.
- To showcase authentic Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in business across Lutruwita via our online business directory and website.
