Press Release: Barayamal launches new virtual programs to continue supporting First Nations Entrepreneurs

As Australian entrepreneurs adapt their business models to a world of remote working and disruption, Barayamal is taking its business accelerator programs online to continue supporting First Nations entrepreneurs.

The “Barayamal Virtual Accelerator” has launched, which is open to First Nations people who are interested in learning how to take their business to the next level and take control of their future – self-determination through First Nations entrepreneurship.

Dean Foley, nationally known First Nations entrepreneur and CEO of Barayamal, says that the digital economy has the potential to be a gamechanger for First Nations people and communities.

“Barayamal programs are about inspiring and supporting the next generation of First Nations entrepreneurs. It’s essential to keep supporting First Nations entrepreneurship development in this disruptive and fast-changing global economy because there will be new opportunities arising from these challenging times that can benefit our communities. Traditional or grassroots First Nations Entrepreneurship can change the world for the better,” he said.

The Barayamal Virtual Accelerator is now taking applications, and First Nations people can apply by 5 pm, 3 May 2020. The free 10-week business accelerator program will provide weekly mentoring and 1-on-1 coaching support along with a workbook and other resources to accelerator business growth. In addition, participants who graduate will also receive a digital accreditation in “First Nations Entrepreneurship” for their hard work and dedication.
