Partnership opportunities across the Northern Territory

We know the businesses. We know the Territory. We do the work.

NTIBN is the peak body for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses in the Northern Territory. Through certification, regional hubs, Indigenous Enterprise Consultants, procurement tools, advocacy and events, we work with businesses from early ideas through to major commercial opportunities.

aLLY MEMBERSHIP AND BUYER TOOLS

Start with membership. Then give your procurement team the tools to find and engage Aboriginal suppliers.

Ally membership is for organisations willing to show practical commitment to Aboriginal supply chains, employment and communities. The Blak Business Directory helps buyers find certified suppliers. Procure Connect supports buyer briefs, supplier engagement and responses. Together they provide an accessible first step into NTIBN’s network

Choices

Ally membership: $500 a year, subject to eligibility and evidence of commitment. Directory and Procure Connect access: $1,000 a year. Combined Ally membership and subscription: $1,300 a year. All working prices exclude GST. Tailored supplier mapping and procurement projects are scoped and priced separately. Onboarding and hands-on buyer support beyond the standard subscription are defined and costed in the agreement.

  • This year I was a finalist, and honestly, the nerves got the better of me for part of the night. I'm more comfortable cheering for other people than being in the spotlight. But being named Blak Female Business Owner of the Year has had me smiling ever since. And I still walked out with that same feeling. What you've built gives us a reason to feel proud and celebrated. There aren't many occasions that let us feel that way, or that we create for ourselves, and there are plenty of reasons for that. You've made one. The whole night was so well run, and every award was well deserved. And the award itself, that beautiful carved bird. What a statement. I love it, and I'll hold it with pride. The BlakPrint Report does the same thing. The data, and the way you've put it into words, gives Aboriginal people permission to feel that pride. It's almost authorising.
