The independent chairman of one of the world's fastest-growing SA's (Software-as-a-service) companies on the planet will be in Hawke's Bay to speak to local business owners.
Pushpay's Bruce Gordon will address business owners at an event to help celebrate start-up incubator The Icehouse's celebrations marking five years in Hawke's bay at a presentation at the Napier War Memorial Centre, on December 7.
"New Zealand-born Pushpay is one of the fastest growing Saas (software-as-a-service) companies in the world, providing a donor management system, including donor tools, finance tools and a custom community app, to the faith sector, non-profit organisations and education providers in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand," the Icehouse operations manager Kate de Lautour said.
"It's targeting the US faith sector for growth, where there are more than 340,000 churches with a total of 1.5 million regular attendees in the US. The company is widely acknowledged as the current darling of the NZX with Bruce Gordon mentoring the founders to a market cap of $1B plus in seven years."
Gordon would also be joined at the event by Shane Anselmi, owner of award-winning Overland Footwear Group.
