NEIS
Tasmania was added to the business development area for Australian Business Development Centre in July of 2009. Since its inception, ABDC has worked continuously with budding entrepreneurs across the state. Our main sites are located in Hobart, Launceston & Devonport and business has grown exponentially since our beginning.
Tasmania is a opportune place to begin a new business. Tasmania has been struggling with a high unemployment rate which makes the possibilities for sub-contracting through self employment, a very strong possibility.
Quote from Maggie Nettleship, manager Tasmania
Meet the crew :
Manager - Maggie Nettleship joined us for the beginning of the new NEIS contract round beginning in July 2009. She helped establish the Tasmanian branch of Australian Business Development Centre almost single handed. Maggie came to us to training skills and understanding developed over many years working in the industry. She now manages three main centres in Tasmania being Hobart (head office for the Tasmanian branch of ABDC), Devonport and Launceston
Administration - Billi Pickering also joined us in 2009 in an administration role. She grew beyond her capabilities in this role and now works closely with NEIS participant to assist them along their journey to business success.
