Women-led businesses will have the opportunity to receive up to $5,000 in funding to support business growth through training, essential equipment and professional services. The Lord Mayor’s Women in Business Grant aims to empower women entrepreneurs, helping them strengthen their businesses and expand their impact.

Successful recipients will also join a 12-month business development program, delivered by Brisbane Economic Development Agency through Brisbane Business Hub with the support of Presenting Partner, Commonwealth Bank. The program provides opportunities to build skills, grow confidence, connect with other women in business and access valuable insights and support to help take their business forward. Recipients will also become part of a community of like-minded women, valuable development opportunities and a network to help them grow.
