Make sure you tune into The Point at 7.30pm on NITV and SBS On Demand to get an insight into the exciting work Dennis Fay is doing with Salty Monkeys. We’re proud to play a small part in the The Salty Monkeys journey and love supporting Dennis to continue to scale his enterprise.
Tonight on The Point on NITV, we look at a Torres Strait Islander entrepreneur with a unique passion for adventure and preserving his heritage. Dennis Fay started Salty Monkeys as a platform for antics on social media on a fishing trip - but it soon turned into an important initiative that engages community, offers youth mentoring, and is driving eco-innovation. "To understand really what we're dealing with here. Salty Monkeys isn't about one person or one company. It's about the whole community coming together to be successful and achieve great things." See more of Dennis' work tonight on The Point at 7.30pm on NITV and SBS On Demand. #Indigenousexcellence Noel Prakash

We’re so excited to partner with Sefa Partnerships! Their support will allow us to grow our organisation and scale our impact. Big things are on the horizon and we can’t wait to share them with you!
At Sefa Partnerships, we are excited to announce that we have a new auspice partnership with Esparq Ventures! We are thrilled to work with their team including Darryl Majid, Toni Ellis and Alex McDonald as they support First Nations entrepreneurs to build and scale their impact. Esparq envisions a frictionless future for Indigenous entrepreneurs. They're on a mission to create an ecosystem where Indigenous entrepreneurs are empowered to innovate and succeed. A future where too little track record, limited credit capacity, or being deemed too risky aren't barriers, and where character, passion, and purpose are the keys to early access to capital. Esparq supports First Nations businesses to build capability and increase their potential to provide financial and social returns. They are developing a strong pipeline of opportunities for impact investors. Esparq is founded and run by successful First Nations entrepreneurs with deep expertise in social enterprise. The team has successfully launched, expanded, and supported social enterprises in Queensland from the South East to the Torres Strait. Esparq is actively seeking support and connections to help scale their operations or directly fund the early-stage First Nations social enterprises they work with. Get in touch with the team at [email protected]. At Sefa Partnerships, we auspice and partner with for-purpose organisations who share our charitable objectives, so we can multiply our impact and tackle disadvantage in Australia at its roots. Get in touch with Alice ([email protected]) to learn more.
