Tirau Business Breakfast

South Waikato District Council hope you can join us for a breakfast catch up to share exciting news about FREE support available to local businesses.

The Regional Business Partner (RBP) Network is funded by New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE) and Callaghan Innovation and is open to South Waikato businesses. To mitigate the impact of Covid-19 this support is now 100% funded by Government to the end of October 2020*. Te Waka is the Regional Business Partner (RBP) for the Waikato region.

The areas local businesses can access Covid-19 Business advisory support include:

• Human Resources & Employee Relations
• Health and Wellbeing at work
• Business Continuity Planning
• Finance and Cashflow Management
• Marketing, Business and digital enablement strategy

Your business must also meet these criteria*:

• Have 50 or fewer FTEs
• Be currently trading
• A privately owned or Māori trust or incorporation or similar organisation managing Maori assets under multiple ownership
• Demonstrate a willingness and capacity to grow
• Have undertaken an interview with an RBP representative and assessed as eligible for funding
