Budding Indigenous entrepreneurs have been invited to apply for assistance from Barayamal’s business accelerator program.
“Barayamal’s Budding Entrepreneurs Program will accelerate the success of four Indigenous entrepreneurs by providing free working space at Australia’s largest community of scalable tech start-ups, Fishburners (in Brisbane),” Barayamal CEO Dean Foley said.
The successful applicants will also take part in a three-month Entrepreneurship Development Program, receiving mentoring from successful Indigenous and non-Indigenous entrepreneurs as well as attending workshops and training.
Applications close on August 27.
Barayamal founder and CEO Dean Foley served five years in the RAAF before founding Barayamal, and is currently studying a Master of Business Administration at Griffith University and a Master of Business (Marketing) at the Queensland University of Technology.
He is also a proud Kamilaroi man who grew up within the Aboriginal community in Gunnedah, NSW.
“Barayamal” is the Kamilaroi word for “black swan”.
