Be part of our audience, live or online, as our six PowerUp Accelerator programme participants pitch their enterprise idea to you.
Over the past ten weeks, these six high-potential startups have received tailored mentoring and support from experts to refine their pitch, power up their idea, and take their business to the next level.
Join us to hear pitches from:
- BOTALLOW: New Zealand’s first supplier of premium, cosmetic-grade tallow at scale.
- Elshaw: A natural solution for managing healthcare dressings and patches.
- ExplainIT: Transformational education tools for those who struggle with numbers.
- Her Strength: A science-based learning platform designed to help young female athletes thrive in sport.
- Rockpool Collective: Reimagining the future of aged care by building intergenerational communities.
- Zoa: International award-winning premium Vodka produced exclusively in Taranaki.
Come along to celebrate the strong entrepreneurial spirit of Taranaki. If you’re an investor, this is your chance to connect with ventures ready for their next stage of growth.
The evening will feature guest speaker Trace Ward, a founder focused on fostering innovation and supporting entrepreneurs. Trace will draw on her journey navigating Scotland’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, raising a mix of angel and public funding in the UK, and she will share candid lessons from her own experiences, including navigating challenges as a woman and parent in the startup space. The event will be hosted by Stacey Hitchcock, General Manager of Investment, Venture Taranaki.
Light refreshments are available throughout the evening for those in attendance.
Registration is essential.
