"I started my consulting business to help immigrants grow into successful business owners. Immigrant businesses are under-represented in Victoria’s business community, and yet they are a vital and crucial part of our community’s economic and socio-cultural landscape. I am excited about the opportunity to connect with business and community leaders through the Community Partnership Network. Together, I believe we can be a bridge to support immigrant entrepreneurs in building businesses of great contribution." Rosalyn Cua, Small Business Consulting for Immigrants
