We provide ongoing advocacy and support for Indigenous business students and graduates. We support students to achieve their best throughout their studies and academic, career mentoring and industry opportunities in Australia and overseas.
We consult with emerging and established Indigenous leaders and stakeholders involved in:
- Indigenous education
- Leveraging Indigenous employment and professions
- Indigenous entrepreneurship
- Indigenous suppliers, including large scale businesses, community organisations, corporates and government agencies
- Indigenous media
- Indigenous thought leaders, academics and researchers
We foster an environment where we can add real value and support to the growing trend of Indigenous people embracing and navigating business knowledge and practice to strengthen, improve and determine their lives, the lives of their families and their communities. We advocate bringing long-lasting change through creativity, responsiveness, hard work, belief, innovative thinking, practice and exchanges, building and sharing knowledge, capabilities, networks and experiences.
We offer a variety of programs to welcome and support Indigenous students. Whether still in high school or developing your career, our programs will strengthen your innovation, creativity, entrepreneurship and leadership skills.
