Trade Events Program

Up to $2,000 is available to businesses to cover costs associated with attending international trade events.

Overview

The Trade Event Program is designed to help Victorian businesses cover costs associated with attending international trade events that are outside the current Victorian Government trade mission schedule and those events located in markets where it is not feasible to run a trade mission.

Background

Businesses taking part in the Trade Event Program benefit by developing deeper, more strategic and sustained business relationships with emerging trading partners who share your interests and business challenges. Businesses may also be eligible to claim expenses incurred from attending a Trade Event.
