A private and exclusive online business alliance that rewards its members


In these challenging times, the need for business communities to stay connected and drive profit through intelligent networking is greater than ever. With this in mind, a Sydney-based not-for-profit group Global Access Partners (GAP) has created First 5000, a dynamic business club restricted to Australia's top 5000 small and medium
size enterprises.


First 5000's interactive online forum is currently under construction.
 
First 5000 Members are invited to contribute

Aiming to overcome general frustration of SMEs at having little or no impact on policy, the broad ineffectiveness of existing industry bodies and difficulty in engaging easily with larger enterprises, First 5000 will provide fast track connections to regulators, major firms and multinationals and help its members influence government for business-friendly policies in Australia's future economic environment.

Membership in First 5000 is free and by invitation only.

Membership benefits and opportunities will include:
