Description

You are invited to join us for a coffee roundtable discussion with Minister Foss, to discuss topics of relevance to small tech companies.

Hon Craig Foss is currently Minister of Small Business, Statistics, Veterans’ Affairs and Associate Minister of Immigration and Transport.

Minister Foss is interested in hearing from members of NZTech about the issues that are important in developing, operating, and growing businesses. The Government has a number of ongoing initiatives to encourage the development of small and medium businesses and the Minister would like to check in to ensure these are still relevant, and to gather your feedback on what else he could be doing.

Topics NZTech Members have already suggested for this discussion include:

* What Government can do to help small businesses grow – issues, roadblocks and opportunities

* Impact of Health & Safety Legislation on small business

* Impact of other compliance costs

* Access to open government data

* How to measure the sector properly.

Please join us at this free NZTech Inform Event.

Registration essential.
