Small Business Month

May is Queensland Small Business Month, celebrating the state’s thousands of small business operators and their contribution to the local economy.

The State Government wants this year’s focus to draw attention to the thousands of small businesses across Queensland that have kept the economy moving.

Throughout May, there are hundreds of events taking place designed to help businesses connect, collaborate and network.

Here’s a link to all the Queensland Small Business Month activities, including numerous online and in-person events.

The month coincides with the ‘Love your small business campaign’, designed to encourage people to support their local small businesses.

You can show your support for small businesses across social media in May by using the hashtags #QSMB2022 and #loveyoursmallbusiness
