Project overview

NSW Small Business Month is a month-long initiative supporting small businesses through events, networking, and skill-building across the state. YSN was engaged to design and build a dynamic digital platform that makes it easy for thousands of businesses to find, register, and attend relevant events — all in one place.

Our Approach
The platform needed to serve a wide audience — from first-time business owners in regional NSW to experienced operators in Sydney — and to function seamlessly across devices, locations, and event types.

Key features included:

Interactive activity calendar with daily filtering
Advanced event search by keyword, postcode, category, and activity type
Map integration for geographic discovery of local events
Bookings and registration pathways for events hosted by third parties
Mobile-friendly, accessible interface for regional and metro audiences
Content design for clarity, promotion, and public-sector engagement
Ongoing updates and support across multiple program cycles

Impact
The platform significantly improved how small businesses discover and participate in NSW Small Business Month events, with streamlined access to hundreds of workshops, expos, and meetups.

Key outcomes:

Thousands of bookings facilitated across regional and metro areas
Strong engagement with local councils, chambers, and partners
Reduced administrative overhead through intuitive search and filtering
Flexible design supporting repeat use across annual cycles
