OzStarter is the business networking platform and career development centre in Australia dedicated to Hongkongers. It was founded in 2020 by a group of Hong Kong Australians who are committed to serving and supporting the Hong Kong community in Australia.
Following significant social changes in Hong Kong, an increasing number of Hong Kongers chose to relocate or settle in Australia. In this transition, employment, career development, and business opportunities quickly became some of the most pressing concerns for newcomers. Recognising this need, a group of Hongkongers already living and working in Australia established OzStarter to create a platform that provides practical support and opportunities for Hong Kongers building their lives in Australia.
OzStarter was founded on a simple belief: connect and support Hongkongers in the aspect of career and business development.
Our Vision
OzStarter’s vision is to build a connected and supportive Hong Kong community in Australia.
We believe that when people, businesses, and communities are meaningfully connected, Hongkongers in Australia can do more than simply find employment — they can build long-term careers, professional networks, and business opportunities. Through OzStarter, we hope to foster a community where Hongkongers support one another, grow together, and make meaningful contributions across different industries and sectors.

OzStarter’s mission is to support Hong Kongers in building sustainable careers and businesses in Australia.
Through our job platform, career resources, business networking events, and entrepreneurship support, we aim to create opportunities and provide practical resources that help Hong Kongers navigate their professional journeys and thrive in a new environment.
