The City of Sydney and Service NSW Business Bureau have launched the 2024 Reboot webinar series, a series of free webinars designed to help small businesses upskill and grow.
Experts from established businesses will lead the webinars, which will cover topics such as social media, leveraging AI innovation, and building business resilience.
Lord Mayor of Sydney, Clover Moore, explained what small businesses can hope to gain from the webinar series.
“As the backbone of the economy, it’s important we support small businesses and the role they play in boosting local jobs and economies.
“The series is an opportunity for small business owners to hear inspiring stories from the many seasoned professionals we’ve enlisted, each of whom can share firsthand experiences of successes and setbacks.
“No matter what stage they’re at on their business journey, the program caters to all, from entrepreneurs just starting out to established businesses,” she said.
