NSW Small Business Month coming in October 2025

NSW Small Business Month is back in October 2025!  Held each year in October, the month is a state-wide initiative that brings together government, industry, and community organisations to celebrate and support the state’s small business sector. 

A key feature of the month is collaborative partnerships that help small businesses across the state innovate, grow and thrive. Collaboration partnerships offer an opportunity for businesses to host events that support the small business community while also benefiting their own organisation – through networking, exposure and meaningful engagement. 

Collaboration partner events can take any form, such as workshops, webinars, speed networking, seminars and should focus on capability and skills, networking and free services. Approved collaborative partners will be listed on the Small Business Month events page, receive access to NSW Government-branded promotional materials to help market their events, and have an opportunity to be featured in official promotions. 

The Small Business Month program will also feature NSW Small Business Commission activities with more details coming soon!  

For more information on becoming a collaborative partner and to subscribe to the newsletter, visit the Small Business Month page.
