Economic set-backs can sometimes be a catalyst for entrepreneurial activity. The world needs entrepreneurs and large-scale enterprises often start out as small business ventures. Small businesses account for 96 percent of all private sector businesses in South Australia and there is a growing demand to encourage, protect and regulate this essential part of the Australian economy. During the month of October, Australia s Department of Trade and Economic Development (DTED) is working with local government, Business Enterprise Centres and Regional Development Australia to manage the launch of Small Business Month”. The event aims to acknowledge and celebrate the contribution of Small Businesses in Australia. During this month, South Australia s small-business owners will be able to improve their knowledge, share experiences and develop their skills by attending various workshops, seminars, receptions and functions across the State. There are approximately 135,000 small businesses in South Australia and together they provide a wide range of products and services. The Australian government is taking steps to reform the sector, enhancing the development of the entrepreneurial offshoots. The development will boost the general Australian economy and it s therefore important that certain protective and governing regulations are instigated for the benefit of these enterpreneurs, franchises and their owners. Part of the government s strategy is to implement comprehensive franchising laws. The influx of Asian Australians has grown the local sector. These Asian Australians are fast becoming the face of shop-front entrepreneurship. A great number of women entrepreneurs have also been emerging in Perth. With more Australians opting for the do-it-yourself approach, the Government saw it fit to celebrate small-businesses during the month of October. The new business sector continues to grow in Australia and events like Small Business month might encourage even more entrepreneurs to start their own ventures. Small Businesses create new opportunities in various industry sectors - one of these being the online marketing and web design industry. The Internet as a global communication gateway enables people to do their day-to-day business activities from the comfort of their own homes.
