Our 2026 Expo Partners

The Illawarra Indigenous Business Expo is made possible through the support of organisations who believe in the strength, potential and growing contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses.

Our partners help us create a space where Indigenous businesses can showcase their work, build connections, access opportunities and strengthen relationships with community, industry and government.

Their support goes beyond making an event possible. It helps create greater visibility for Indigenous enterprise and contributes to a stronger and more connected Indigenous business ecosystem across the Illawarra.

We sincerely thank our 2026 partners for their commitment to supporting Indigenous business, economic participation and community connection.
