Episode Synopsis

In Australia, each year we take in approximately 14,000 refugees under our current humanitarian program, most of whom come from Iraq, Syria, Burma and Afghanistan.
At first glance, these new arrivals appear to be the most unlikely of entrepreneurs. And yet, these people create more business income than any other category of migrant.
On this episode of Think: Business Futures, Jock Collins joins Nicole Sutton to discuss the impact refugee entrepreneurs have on the Australian economy. Plus, David and Nicole, speak to an entrepreneur from Iran about his journey.
