The City of Armadale’s new Business Enterprise Program was recently launched attracting 37 participants to its first workshop (E-Biz Basics), held in September.

A range of business operators from within the City of Armadale, and some from as far away as Northbridge took advantage of some fantastic, practical insights and examples provided by the presenter of the workshop, Vincent Brown.

Business Foundations Operations Manager, Gabor Hernandi said the E-Biz workshop went incredibly well.

“We were really happy with both the content and delivery, and how the audience engaged with the presenter.

“The feedback was positive and the general consensus was that people felt that Vince’s relaxed style of presenting made the topic incredibly easy to understand and digest.

“Most people stayed for the networking session afterwards, which to us is always a good sign that the event is a success,” said Gabor Hernandi.

Mayor Henry Zelones said the City is very excited about the new partnership with Business Foundations, who are providing the workshop and seminars at various locations within the City.

“Over the next nine months there are a number of workshops covering useful topics that will appeal to a variety of small and larger business operators,” said Mayor Zelones.
