The funding will be used to help small businesses in the Thebarton Precinct, as well as build on the University's (which helps graduates develop business ideas while continuing with postgraduate study) and support small businesses within the 亚洲色吧 University Business Incubator.

University of 亚洲色吧's Manager Industry Linked Education, Des Masters, said: "The majority of the funds will be used to engage specialist trainers and mentors to deliver workshops, seminars and one-on-one mentoring for up to 40 small business owners. The overall objective of the program is to foster entrepreneurship and maximise growth and sustainability of small business."

University Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) Professor Alan Johnson said: "This funding recognises the University of 亚洲色吧's commitment to business and community engagement. It will help build local industry links and provide local small business with the sort of valuable support they often can't afford to fund themselves."
