Four Tauranga entrepreneurs have joined forces to help connect other like-minded people.
Jo Allum, Michael Doerner, Pascale Hyboud-Peron and Steven Vincent have launched the Venture Centre website to make it easier and quicker for Bay of Plenty businesses to find the people, spaces and training.
"It's too slow and time is money," co-founder Jo Allum said.
While still in its early stages, Ms Allum, also director of Yojo Designs, expected the site to become the go-to place for local business people looking for information.
"The Venture Centre is an online hub to connect the dots between all the innovative people and amazing stuff that's being done in Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty," she told the Bay of Plenty Times.
