Wellingtonians learn how not to stuff up


Wellingtonians learn how not to stuff up

While politicians might have the occasional stuff up, business people rarely admit to them. However, a number of business leaders will discuss their own business stuff-ups at the Bizzone Business Expo on in Wellington from 21-23 July. It is New Zealand’s largest event for business, with more than 3,000 people expected to attend in Wellington this year.

Two of this year’s keynote speakers - Steve Bonnici, managing director Urgent Couriers and Ross Hunter co-owner of Harvey’s Real Estate – feature in the 20 minute StuffUp™ documentary presented by WHK at the Bizzone Business Expo.

“It’s a must-see for business owners who want to grow their business,” says Sarah Trotman, managing director of Bizzone. She features in the documentary along with the Prime Minister John Key and seven New Zealand business leaders.

“The Bizzone Business Expo is all about helping people to grow their business – and this includes learning from mistakes,” Trotman says. “As well as the StuffUp Room there is the National Bank Seminar Series with 40 free seminars on practical topics, free business mentoring and of course the latest business products and services on display. It is the country’s largest business marketplace so it’s a great opportunity for business owners to network and discover new products.”

The Bizzone Business Expo will be at Wellington’s TSB Bank Arena and is sponsored by Newstalk ZB, Media 5, WHK, The National Bank and Scoop.co.nz. To get tickets for the expo or book for The National Bank Seminar Series go to www.bizzone.com or there are door sales.
