He said he was proud of the support his government has given small businesses.
“We have supported start-ups, women in business, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander entrepreneurs and regional businesses, to name a few,” he said.
“Mentoring through services such as Business Connect can also be a great way to help small businesses survive and can be very beneficial for those entrepreneurs from new and emerging communities who have taken the bold steps to start a new enterprise.”
Mr Kamper said the NSW Government was looking to expand on this service by creating the NSW Business Bureau, which will simplify the dealing a company has with Government, and it will assist businesses when they are confronted by a difficult challenge.
“Multicultural NSW is the lead agency in NSW promoting community harmony and social cohesion,” he said..
