Win Business Gold in China

Telstra Business and Business Club Australia's Win Business Gold in China initiative offered small businesses the chance to win one of 12 places to visit Beijing during the Olympic Games.

Under the Win Business Gold in China trade visitation program, Telstra Business and Business Club Australia will host networking and educational forums prior to and during the Olympics to allow the winners to make greater inroads into China’s booming economy.

Austrade Chief Executive Officer, Peter O’Byrne, said this program would assist emerging exporters to showcase their business during the world’s biggest sporting occasion.
