Lord Mayor's Multicultural Business Scholarship Program

The Lord Mayor’s Multicultural Business Scholarship Program provides aspiring business leaders with the knowledge and skills to expand their capabilities. The training courses offered range from the Start Your Own Business Short Course, to export training, project management, leadership and more. Since 2008, the program has delivered nearly 650 scholarships. In 2024, Brisbane City Council have partnered with 9 education and professional development providers to deliver this program.

Applications for the 2024 Lord Mayor's Multicultural Business Scholarship Program are now open and will close at 11.59pm on Sunday 31 March 2024.

Are you eligible?

To be considered for the scholarship program, applicants must:

  • be from a multicultural or culturally and linguistically diverse (CaLD) background with at least one natural parent born in a country other than Australia,
  • have Australian citizenship or hold permanent residency, and
  • personally reside within the Brisbane City Council local government area.

To ensure as many Brisbane residents benefit from the program as possible, those who previously received a scholarship under this program may apply for the scholarship again, however priority will be given to those who have not received a scholarship before.
