Small businesses in Parramatta are set to receive a major boost with a series of free workshops aimed at enhancing their budgeting, marketing, and grant writing skills. The City of Parramatta’s Small Business Program will offer over 13 workshops in the next six months, providing invaluable access to industry experts.
These workshops will cover various areas, including building financial literacy, empowering women in business, networking, support for writing grants, and learning about digital tools to accelerate business growth. City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Pierre Esber emphasised the importance of these initiatives, stating, “Small businesses are the backbone of our community, and we want to make sure business owners have the right tools and resources to thrive.”
Workshops will include topics such as growing an online audience, networking, and a cybersecurity webinar, all designed to support small businesses in navigating the challenges of running their operations.
The Australian School of Employment will also contribute to the program with a face-to-face Ideation 101 course. This course aims to support individuals looking to start their own careers and build a community around their businesses. CEO Taj Pabari expressed excitement about this partnership, highlighting the importance of community in their mission. “Partnering with the City of Parramatta allows us to extend our impact and foster local economic growth. Our goal has always been to operate from the communities we want to serve, so we’re now officially calling North Parramatta home,” said Pabari.
Western Sydney Business Centre’s Business Connect Advisor and Operations Manager Nathan Todd also voiced enthusiasm about the collaboration. “This is a big opportunity to provide advice to small businesses and showcase what our local area has to offer. The webinars will address the main issues currently faced by small businesses, providing useful insights and a roadmap to success.”
Local business owners are encouraged to take advantage of these free resources to enhance their skills and drive their businesses forward. To register for a workshop, visit http://atparramatta.com.

Dear Reader,The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.
Thank you for your support.
Best wishes,
Team The Indian Sun
