It's been a real privilege to have been able to 'pop' in and out of the South Auckland 'PopUp Business School of Aotearoa' which is running an intensive 10-day short course out of Te Haa Cooperative space out in Manukau.
The idea was brought back from England by Tony who is the founder of the movement here in New Zealand. He was an ex-pat living in England for a number of years and then returned back to NZ and brought the idea with him.
A big thanks to the Mangere-Otahuhu, Manukau-Otara and Manurewa boards whose funding along with MSD Ministry of Social Development has made this possible for many who are either in business or are considering business ideas.
It's been a very fruitful consideration of the various ideas that are out there for businesses to consider and especially for startups. I'd highly recommend this course for any who are considering business concepts or who want some more support as it's like attending a Master class for business owners.
What's even more refreshing is that all of the facilitators all own their own businesses and are able to share from first-hand experience the different things that they've been able to overcome in order to have successful businesses with overseas experience as well.
Also looking forward to being able to pop in and out of the course next week with a few ideas that they have in store for us as participants to try out. Never a dull a moment...
