Global Power Generation

Connect, Grow, and Innovate for our next cohort.

Connect with fellow business owners, mentors, and changemakers who understand the unique challenges of regional Victoria. The GPG Regional Business Growth Program is designed for businesses who want to strengthen the business side of their enterprise, with a focus on:   

• Clearer business decision-making.
• Enterprise design and strategic direction.
• Credible brand positioning and communication.

You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. Join a supportive community that's committed to helping your business grow, at no cost to you. The program is free for participants and offers the chance to connect with expert advisors, expand your network, and pitch your idea for a share of the $10,000 prize pool. This 10-week program is specifically designed to create jobs, opportunities, and a stronger regional economy.

Applications for our current cohort are now open to businesses from all industries.

To be eligible, your business must be located in, operate within, or have supply chains or service areas that include the following local areas:

• Corangamite Shire
• Golden Plains Shire

We're looking for business owners who are actively running or preparing to run a viable enterprise and want to strengthen the business foundations behind what they do. You may already have customers, markets, or partnerships in place, or you might be in the process of testing and refining your approach. Either way, you’re seeking clearer strategy, stronger decision-making, and greater confidence as your business evolves.

You may not be aiming for rapid growth, but this program is ideal for those focused on long-term viability—exploring new business models, adapting to change, and working more effectively with partners and networks that align with your business, values, and goals.

This opportunity is ideal for:

• Small-to-medium regional businesses 
• Social enterprises or community-led initiatives
