It will be run by Gunnedah Shire Council (GSC), who is hoping to provide local operators with the additional information and know-how that could prove crucial to running a successful business.
The commerce industry often has grants or other programs available to it, but those who can benefit are not always aware of them.
GSC mayor Jamie Chaffey will attend alongside representatives from the Department of Regional NSW, Training Services NSW and AusIndustry.
Council Planning, Infrastructure and Economic Development staff will also be in attendance.
"Government processes can sometimes be difficult to navigate, so with all three levels of government in the room at the same time this is a great opportunity for locals to get the information they need," Cr Chaffey said.
"The Gunnedah Shire is full of connected, innovative and productive businesses and a networking event such as this provides a chance to establish and grow connections.

"It is also an opportunity to help the three levels of government understand first-hand the issues common to local businesses."
This is not the first event of its kind to have been hosted by council, with a Back to Business conference having taken place last July.
A council spokesperson stated that was extremely well attended, and delivered some positive outcomes for the attendees and the town's economy in general.
"The feedback received showed that business owners value the opportunity to come together with like-minded people and hear how these organisations can support their business," they stated.
"These forums create opportunities to form new connections and strengthen existing relationships."
Tickets are available for $5.00 per person with proceeds going to Rotary West.
