In light of its findings, the Taskforce has recommended the establishment of an independent body to assist Australia’s 2.1 million small businesses in fast-tracking the adoption of digital.

“Many small businesses are delaying, ignoring or simply are unaware of the opportunities that digital technologies may offer them,” Bouris said.
