Bridget Romanes: Kiwi Launch Pad founder on receiving funding, mentorship and resourcing through Coralus - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Seven rising female-led New Zealand businesses are set to receive funding, resources and mentorship from Coralus.

Coralus, formerly known as SheEO, has announced its 2023 Ventures today- expanding their outreach by two more businesses than in previous years.

Among this selection is Kiwi Launch Pad, an employer-funded digital platform for new migrants designed to help them successfully settle in Aotearoa.

Founder Bridget Romanes says this service has attracted several major employers, from Deloitte, KPMG, TVNZ and KiwiRail.

"There's 100,000 migrants who've come to New Zealand since the borders opened, roughly, in July last year. The demand is certainly out there."
