Australia’s small business landscape is being reshaped by some major forces right now – including the need for AI training, and a proposed new Small Business Charter. We explore both in this week’s episode. First up, Freshworks Australia’s Vice President, Andrew Phillips, talks us through the widening gap between businesses adopting AI and those holding back. Andrew warns business leaders about the risks that come with inaction. He also provides practical, accessible steps for businesses ready to leverage AI to lift efficiency and stay competitive.

Next, Anne Nalder, CEO of the Small Business Association of Australia, delves into the proposed Small Business Charter and its potential to tackle long-standing structural disadvantages faced by SMEs. She outlines the reforms, protections and support the Charter could bring to businesses navigating today’s challenging conditions.
