Small businesses in the Isaac region are set for a year of growth and connection with the launch of the Isaac Business Chamber’s Calendar of Events 2025, proudly supported by the Local Buying Foundation. This initiative is a strategic effort to strengthen the region’s small business community through education, networking and collaboration. Delivered in the first half of 2025, the programme responds to challenges identified by local businesses and aims to build confidence, resilience and leadership.
The calendar features a diverse mix of events designed to provide practical tools and insights. Two Small Business Month webinars will tackle critical topics such as managing psychosocial risk and harassment in the workplace, helping businesses navigate complex HR issues. The Marketing Home Brewed series will run three sessions focused on marketing in an AI world, equipping businesses with strategies to stay competitive in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
Beyond skills development, these events foster connections and partnerships that strengthen the local business ecosystem. By creating spaces for collaboration and knowledge-sharing, the Chamber is helping businesses adapt to change and seize new opportunities. This initiative aligns perfectly with LBF’s commitment to building capability and supporting sustainable regional economies. In rural communities, access to quality training and networking can make a significant difference, and this calendar ensures those opportunities are available locally.
The Local Buying Foundation is proud to partner with the Isaac Business Chamber on this impactful programme, reinforcing our shared goal of creating stronger, more resilient businesses and communities across the region.
