“Small businesses aren’t just shrink-wrapped large corporates” - The Hon. Bruce Billson GAICD.

In this episode, our guest, Bruce Billson, tells the story of small business in Australia and the role of the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman (ASBFEO).

With nearly half of all small business owners in Australia over 50, and only 8% under 30 (when it was 18% a decade ago), the unique needs and challenges of small and family businesses are things we need to consider and plan for.

ASBFEO supports small businesses through the challenges they face – including support for disputes, mental health, resilience and financial well-being, and provides a Tax Concierge Service – helping to navigate the Administrative Appeals Tribunal process.

Tune in to hear more about how they support small businesses in communities around Australia, and how you can use ASBFEO for your business.
