About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

    The NDIS supports over 500,000 eligible Australians with disability offering them more quality time with family and friends, greater independence, access to new skills and jobs and an improved quality of life. This has created many opportunities for our business community to expand their offerings into the disability sector.

    Join with others in the NDIS industry, build your network with other providers and help get the word out about your company. If you work in the NDIS sector within or service the Charles Sturt area we would love you to come along.

    Following the Outcomes and Impacts Reports of the NDIS Review and Disability Royal Commission and Registration Taskforce, these events will discuss the latest updates in the sector for currently registered and unregistered providers.

    Join us at this free networking event to:

    • understand the current NDIS landscape - market changes, gaps, and updates.
    • meet with local NDIS providers and connect with like-minded businesses
    • gain an understanding of how you can connect with people with a lived experience of disability looking for support
    • understand how council can facilitate partnerships and future collaborations
    • discover NDIS market opportunities in Western Adelaide

    We encourage you to stay on to network and connect with like-minded people.
