BizHub Porirua is a pop-up initiative designed to bring the Porirua business community together to connect, grow and thrive. It provides a physical space for business owners, entrepreneurs, and community leaders to access business support, celebrate success, and build local networks.
BizHub is brought to you by Porirua City Council and Te Rūnanga o Toa Rangatira in conjunction with WellingtonNZ, Wellington Pacific Business Network, Te Matarau a Māui, the Woolstore.
How will BizHub work?
From 1 August, and every second Friday, BizHub will open up a welcoming, collaborative space for business owners, entrepreneurs, and community leaders to:
- drop in for business support – get guidance on business planning, marketing, procurement, compliance, funding, and digital tools
- connect with local experts and advisors – meet people who can help you take your next step, whether you're just starting out or scaling up.
- attend workshops and events – learn from inspiring speakers, hear from successful local business owners, and upskill in practical, hands-on sessions
- celebrate wins and share challenges – find encouragement, solidarity, and fresh ideas with others walking the same path
- test ideas and trial new offerings – use the space as a safe zone to innovate and experiment, with support from others who get it.
The kaupapa is driven by a belief in the power of collective action and shared resources – “he tini ngā whetū e ngaro ai te marama” – we shine brightest together.
Whether you’re a solo operator, a side hustler, a seasoned entrepreneur, or just exploring your options – BizHub Porirua is your space to belong, be bold, and build something great.
