What is Startup Gippsland? Startup Gippsland is a 12-week program that helps entrepreneurs develop, launch or grow their businesses. The program will drive you to progress your idea through a series of workshops, mentoring and peer support. Thanks to government funding, the program is free to you as the participant. There will be 40 spots up for grabs - 10 in each local council area of Bass Coast, Baw Baw, Latrobe City and Wellington. When do applications open?
