Are you considering moving out of Austria and founding a business in the sun? Uncover the endless migrant opportunities in Australia, Melbourne. Migrants looking to set up a new venture in Australia whether it’s in the building and construction industry or something entirely different are often drawn to Melbourne, the capital of the Australian State of Victoria. Its strong economy, excellent employment and business opportunities, world class educational institutions and quality of life are all attractive to migrant families. In fact over 50 per cent of all business migrants to Australia settle in Victoria. The State’s reputation as the manufacturing, services, innovation and knowledge powerhouse of Australia, generating a quarter of the nation’s economic activity, further contributes to make Melbourne an attractive option for business migrants. The city has a broad-based economy, transparent governance and legal protections for investors. It has a long tradition of welcoming foreign investment and offers competitive business costs compared to other global locations. The Harvard Business Review rated Australia as the best place to invest in the post-recession world. With its continuous economic expansion and low inflation, migrants can find economic opportunities that are currently rare in most of the developed world. The steadily growing building and construction industry and access to highly skilled and qualified workforce makes setting up a business in Melbourne a viable option. The Government offers visa nomination under the full range of Australian Government business and investor visa pathways and wherever you are in the world, Business and Investor migrants are offered personal access to support services from a global network of Victorian Government Business Offices. In Europe, there are Victorian Government Business Offices in London and Frankfurt offering support services including access to the Victorian Government’s Agent General and a dedicated Victorian Government Migration Manager in London.
