Funded under the Māori Innovation Fund, the aim of this programme is to build more successful Māori enterprises, which are sustainable, profitable, keen to grow, and employ Māori. This includes social enterprise (Pakihi Whai Kaupapa). Growing more successful Māori small businesses is key to lifting Māori economic performance. We know Māori are underrepresented in traditional business coaching and capability training.
MBIE wants to find a Respondent or a group of Respondents who can market and design business skills training and support to Māori who are at an early stage in developing their business, or want to begin a business. Training will be provided through a programme of Māori small business workshops called Pakihi 101 (i.e. Business 101).
We would like participating businesses to leave the Pakihi 101 programme with new skills, a growth plan, a mentor, and connections with other businesses. We hope this programme will lift business skills among Māori businesspeople (or budding businesspeople) and link them into other business services, and provide an on-going legacy after the programme has finished.
There will be a supplier briefing held in Wellington and via Video Conference at 12-1pm, 20 October 2017.
This briefing will be at Room G06 of the MBIE offices at 15 Stout Street, Wellington. The VC details will be emailed to you upon RSVP (there is a 20 person maximum for the video conference)
If you intend to attend , please RSVP (indicating either in person or via VC) by 12pm 18 October to Nerida.Kelly@mbie.govt.nz (late registrations will be accepted until midday 19 October).
In the meantime, we encourage questions submitted through GETS.
