Supply Nation’s annual flagship event Connect is back for 2024. The event brings together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses, corporate organisations, and government departments to foster strategic opportunities and celebrate the success, and calibre of the Indigenous Business sector.

The Indigenous Business Tradeshow provides the opportunity for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses to showcase the calibre, diversity and vibrancy of their products and services to some of Australia’s leading corporate organisations and government departments.

The Tradeshow is a hub where passionate entrepreneurs and buyers from across the country will come together to conduct business, engage, and learn.

Last year, we welcomed over 2,500 attendees through the Tradeshow doors, and we look forward to another successful day of learning and networking again this year.

Held across two days, the Knowledge Forum and Networking drinks will take place on Wednesday 28 August, followed by the Indigenous Business Tradeshow and Gala Awards Dinner celebrating the Supplier Diversity Award finalists and winners on Thursday 29 August.

The official theme for Connect 2024 is ‘Legacy’. As Supply Nation celebrates 15 years, we reflect on the determination and courage of Indigenous entrepreneurs, leaders, our founding members, and suppliers, and honour their enduring legacy. We owe it to the formidable Elders, and to those that have stood before us, to maintain this momentum and continue to build a prosperous future for all.
