At Global Victoria, we're passionate about creating global opportunities for Victorian women through the Global Victoria Women (GVw) initiative. GVw aims to increase the number and diversity of women in Victoria participating in international business.

GVw leverages Global Victoria’s expertise in Melbourne and across  our international network of 23 trade and investment offices to support the global aspirations of women in business and help them take on the world.

Across 2023-24, we were privileged to deliver meaningful activations that supported 200 women from 194 Victorian companies as part of GVw.

In 2024-25, we’re delivering activations for women and champions of GVw across our key markets:

• Our Flagship activation, Connecting International Leaders to mark the visit by 65+ leading women in business from Brazil to inspire new ways of thinking and building connections.

• Women in Export to China series in partnership with the Australia China Business Council.

• International Women's Day sponsorships and hosting activities with the Australia Japan Business Cooperation Committee (AJBCC), the Australia Japan Business Council of Victoria (AJBCV), the American Chamber of Commerce in Australia (AmCham) and the Australian British Chamber of Commerce (ABCC).

• A roundtable with the Australian Indian Business Council.

• A networking engagement marking a visit by women-led startups from Southeast Asia.
