Where’s all the action with exports? With women entrepreneurs. Women are becoming increasingly important among the world’s exporters because many women run small businesses.
In Australia, for example, women run one-third of all small businesses. If this trend continues, many new exporting businesses will be run by women entrepreneurs, or will have women in key positions.
In anticipation of more talent to come, Austrade has set up a Women in Export program. There are more than 19,000 women export executives in Australia, but there is plenty more talent out there.
The program encourages networking and mentoring among women exporters and business groups to raise awareness of Austrade programs such as the New Exporter Development Program and Export Market Development Grants.

Australia is the host country for a “Women in Global Business” National Seminar Series (refer to Women in Export Program).
Participants will learn about specific opportunities and strategies for building sustainable export programs from Austrade’s highly experienced in-market Trade Commissioners and local case study speakers.
Australia’s initiative is very much in line with the mission of WEGG:
The Women in Export program aims to ensure women in business are aware of, and have access to, the full range of Austrade’s services to assist them in becoming successful and sustainable exporters. This is being done by:
- encouraging businesswomen and businesses owned or operated by women to export
- identifying businesswomen who are active in export and who could become role models for other women in business
- working with existing women’s networks to help them achieve a greater export focus among their membership
For more information about the seminar series (starts April 2), go here.
