The Western Business Accelerator and Centre of Excellence (Western BACE), was established and opened in May 2015 with the primary role of being the hub of enterprise, community activity and business development for Melbourne’s West. With extensive growth projected in this region, the Western BACE’s vision is that Melbourne’s West has the support and enterprise ecosystem that rivals any major Australian city. We aim to achieve this by creating a community driven business hub where people matter, feel a sense of belonging and are supported in striving for growth and excellence.
