BA5

Our BA5 are supported by the Horowhenua District Council, HNZT and Electra. These monthly gatherings provide the perfect opportunity for business owners to network, socialise, share experiences and make valuable business connections in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. You’ll also hear from some exciting and innovative speakers about national and international topics, and how these relate to Horowhenua.  

Our next BA5 is being held at Te Takeretanga o Kua-hau-pō at 5.30pm on the 15th September

Our speaker is Melissa Clarke-Reynolds who is a Futurist, Strategist, Professional Chartered Fellow of the Institute of Directors and thinks and speaks about the future.

She runs workshops on the future of food and agriculture and new business models.
