Who might find this blog useful?

My aim is to do my bit to help New Zealand to produce a greater number of high growth, high value, export revenue earning companies sooner.

So I'm going to produce a mix of different resources that are useful and interesting for almost everyone interested in entrepreneurial activity. Inside and outside New Zealand. Now that is a little too broad for my liking, so I had better refine it down slightly:

I'm aiming to help, guide, support, collaborate with everyone who is interested in pursuing their entrepreneurial ambitions, AND those who want to support those same entrepreneurs and their businesses.

- so this could include would-be entrepreneurs who are thinking about ' taking the plunge' , people who have taken the plunge and currently flapping around wondering whether it was such a good idea after all, and more experienced entrepreneurs and owner-managers who recognise that they could do with some help to take their business to the next level.

- also included in my target audience are investors (angel and VC), consultants / advisers, executive team members, business partners and (to a limited extent) policy makers.

- all aiming to take companies from New Zealand into overseas markets - including, but not limited to, the USA, the UK and elsewhere slightly closer to home.

So, if you fall into one or more of those groups, then you should, over time, find some useful content in here for you.

..and you may like to comment, or direct me to your own resources too!
