Our business coaches support people from many different of backgrounds, to start all sorts of businesses.
One of the questions we get asked most is what type of business do we support. Would we consider supporting a new and innovative business idea. The answer is simple – Yes!
At Many Rivers, our goal is to support people to overcome the barriers they are facing to start their own businesses.
Nearly half of Many Rivers supported businesses are female owned which is above the national average of 35% of small businesses owners being female. 38% of the small businesses that we support are owned by indigenous people.
