As some of you will be aware the Government is expanding the business helplines. In addition, they have increased funding to the Regional Partner Network to support business during Covid-19. Essentially this is a list of providers that can help businesses especially around marketing, legal, finance, etc. Up until recently the advice was subsided 50:50 (ie, the company had to put up half the now.
Govt has now may the service free to business (up to $5k). Plus has been expanded the advice offered to include ‘’Health and Wellness’’. So potentially an opportunity for H&S people to become registered.
I talked with the NZTE person managing the scheme. In a nutshell:
