Yarra City Council hosted the inaugural Business Expo in September 2009.  

The Expo was part of Council’s commitment to support local business, focussing on raising awareness of the resources available to support starting up, developing and growing business in Yarra.    

More than 200 people attended the Expo at the Richmond Town Hall and gained one-on-one advice from more than 20 exhibitors, representing government agencies, industry associations and the education sector.
