Rear view into the 2023 Indigenous Business Month in the backdrop of Voice referendum

Conversation with the Univeristy of Melbourne’s Associate Professor Michelle Evans, co-founder of Indigenous Business Month (IBM) looking back at the 2023 edition, whose theme was ‘Gather together’. In their planning, organisers ensured Indigenous Business Month events did not collide with Voice referendum campaigns/events. This year the Indigenous business community boasts a record number of First Nations graduates with master’s degrees in Business Administration or business-related studies.
