As an Aboriginal business we know many of the issues faced with starting and building a successful business, especially through the challenging times we find ourselves in currently. IndigiSpace has developed a virtual program that supports you through the current environment, that helps you create and share your unique stories as you develop a validated business model around that.
The 10 week program provides you with a platform to develop and grow your business or great idea. We help you get clear on what it is you are doing, what you are trying to achieve and the big why behind your business. We help you get some clarity as you develop and validate your business model, addressing the real reason and purpose behind the business.
The virtual program, specifically for Indigenous businesses provides ongoing development, support, mentoring and tools to grow ideas and businesses. You gain a new confidence in yourself and your business, a validated business model, learn how to best tell your story to a variety of audiences, walking away with a clear direction for your business and new ecosystem for support.
