• As part of the program, we are collaborating with Are Media, Australia’s largest publisher of women’s focused titles such as ELLE, Marie Claire and Girlfriend, to reach to young women around the country and inspire growth and potential of young women entrepreneurs including those living in remote and regional communities and from culturally and linguistically diverse groups.

Applicants will be judged by the Instagram team together with some of Australia’s leading women entrepreneurs including Grace Brennan from Buy from the Bush and Jane Huxley, CEO of Are Media. Applications close 1 October, 11:59PM AEST.
