Shining a light
StartUp NZ is designed to be a “living, breathing” resource, shining a light on the great work being done to support entrepreneurship in New Zealand by so many people.
New ecosystem member profiles and relevant content will be added regularly and our goal is to keep the information in the guide as up to date as possible, to allow for the changes to each organisations programmes and services as they occur.
Why did we make this?
We created StartUp NZ to answer questions we receive here at NZ Entrepreneur on an almost daily basis. While there is a lot of support for entrepreneurs in New Zealand, it isn’t always easy for business owners to understand what role each organisation plays, or even how to find them.
We hope StartUp NZ will go a long way towards directing entrepreneurs to the people that can help them, becoming a first-stop online “road map” for people in the early stages of their entrepreneurial journey.
Got an organisation to add?
While we have over 200 organisations, programmes, groups and events already catalogued, we know there are bound to be people out there that even we don’t know about. If you think we’ve missed someone, or you’d like your own dedicated profile page like these contact us on Facebook and we’ll be in touch.
