Gympie Regional Council has partnered with the State Government to launch a program aimed at encouraging more women to get into business.<\/p>\n

The SAGE (Succeed, Achieve, Grow and Employ) program was launched an International Women\u2019s Day event hosted in Gympie on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Minister for Small Business Shannon Fentiman announced that nominations for the program are now open. <\/p>\n

“The SAGE Women Project will host a range of activities and events for women in business throughout the year including workshops, roundtable discussions and industry events,” Ms Fentiman said.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s our plan to give women the tools, support and skills they need to start, grow and employ, and ultimately lead and succeed, in their own organisations.”<\/p>\n

The program will focus on women who work in construction; agriculture, timber and forestry; manufacturing; health care and social assistance; tourism; and digital industries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gympie Mayor Mick Curran said the project aims to identify aspirations and development opportunities for women in business, and provide support.<\/p>\n

“This program will provide the opportunity for them to share their knowledge, inspire and be inspired as well mentor up and coming fellow businesswomen,” Mayor Curran said.<\/p>\n

Ms Fentiman said the partnership project is part of the State Government\u2019s Advancing Women in Business initiative.<\/p>\n

“Women now make up just over a third of Australian business operators,” she said.<\/p>\n

“It is because of this gender gap the Queensland Government is investing in women to help them start and grow small businesses, and importantly, to employ.”<\/p>\n
