Welcome

We welcome you to become a valued partner of the Vodafone National Small Business Summit.
The COSBOA Summit is highly regarded as the premier Small Business event to discuss and debate
new and existing policies for the betterment of the almost 3 million Small Businesses throughout
Australia.

The National Small Business Summit 2018 provides a platform for small business representatives,
senior politicians and large business representatives to exchange ideas, opinions and experiences
aimed to support, drive, change and build productivity across the small business sector.

Hosted by the Council of Small Business Organisation Australia, the main goal of this annual event is to:

•   Promote and support the development of small businesses in Australia;

•   Advocate to advance the interests of small business in Australia, including through policy change
    and regulatory reform;

•   Foster an increased awareness and understanding of the role of small business in Australia amongst
    public servants and elected government officials, larger businesses, the media and the general
    community.

The Summit draws extensive media coverage every year due to its high profile speakers representing the
policy makers and regulators shaping Australia’s small business arena and highlighting the key issues around
communities, small business collaboration and confidence.

This year’s National Small Business Summit will be held at the Swissotel Sydney on 30 & 31 August 2018.

Becoming a Partner of the National Small Business Summit will maximise your brand awareness and provide
you with an opportunity to experience maximum exposure to Government executives and industry association
leaders representing hundreds of small businesses in Australia.
