Connecting Women in Business

Building capability and a supportive community is important in business, and networking provides a platform for women to come together in a collaborative group to connect, share experiences and learn from each other.

The Connecting Women in Business initiative is funded through the South Australian Government’s $4 million Women in Business program, with a goal to see women better represented across our state’s business community.

This Program is designed to support existing networking groups and communities in metropolitan and regional South Australia that connect women in business through mentors, events, online forums and workshops.

What is the Connecting Women in Business Program?

The Connecting Women in Business program gives business owners an opportunity to network with other like-minded women in their local area.

Four delivery partners with a track record of presenting engaging and valuable networking opportunities will be delivering events specifically for women business owners. These events will be across a number of regions including Adelaide's north, west and regional areas.
