Monash Council has launched 'Start Up, Invest and Grow in Monash', a new program designed to empower entrepreneurs, startups and businesses in the City of Monash.
Running throughout May in partnership with Monash Precinct Network, the initiative offers local businesses a chance to connect with Monash's world-class research institutions, robust infrastructure and powerful networks.
Businesses can choose from a series of events and workshops to engage with industry leaders, tour the Monash National Employment and Innovation Cluster, gain insight into funding pathways, explore digital transformation strategies and more.
"With a thriving community of over 200,000 residents and the largest concentration of jobs outside Melbourne's CBD, Monash is a hub of innovation and economic activity, and a premier location for businesses to start and invest," said Monash Mayor, Cr Paul Klisaris.
"We are home to world-class businesses across a range of industries, and our 'Start Up, Invest and Grow' program is a testament to Council's commitment to fostering the region's economic innovation".
