KEDA CAN HELP YOU!

KEDA is holding its next KickStartKapiti event Tuesday, 5.30-7.30 pm 27th April from its new business hub at the Kapiti Airport.

Innovators and business owners with new ideas are invited to pitch their idea or vision for their start up to a group of business advisers and support organisations. They will hear from KickStart alumni and receive practical and insightful feedback from experienced business people and advisers.

KEDA chair Stuart Ayres says “this is a fabulous opportunity for ideas and innovations to become a Project within the free KickStart Programme where Project owners will be assigned a mentor, encouraged to participate in workshops on how to run a business.

A suitably qualified adviser from the KEDA network can help Project owners undertake an initial feasibility assessment, with view to ultimately commercialising their business,  including funding and provision of ongoing advice and support.

Project owners get to use the new KEDA business hub, a co working and meeting space-a centre for collaboration, networking, innovation, and for launching the next New Zealand success story.

If an enterprising individual or business start-up has an idea that they want to develop and commercialise, KEDA’s free KickStart events are a great place to start”.

It costs nothing for entrepreneurs, innovators and growth businesses to learn how to turn their ideas into reality. To find out more, register here.

KickStart Kapiti is an initiative of KEDA, (Kapiti Economic Development Association). KEDA is a Lead and Partner supporting the Kapiti Coast’s Economic Development Strategy and Implementation Plan helping businesses grow and prosper to develop and support a vibrant business eco system in Kapiti.
