Business Growth and Innovation, is a New Zealand based company who specialise in using technology to drive innovation and grow your business. We work within the business vision to identify the opportunity, and implement tech-focussed solutions that are purposeful, relevant and drive value for your customers, and therefore your business. We offer a range of end-to-end services, across people, process, product, and technology (hardware and software), ensuring you get the level of engagement and services that are appropriate for your business needs and wants.

We have the skills and expertise to start with an idea or problem, and identify both the opportunity for your business, and the changes necessary to achieve it.

Startups: How do you turn an idea into a product? How can you use the competitive landscape to find your niche fit?  As your business will grow, are your people, processes and tech set up to scale in support of that growth?  Is your offering setup to both attract potential customers and promote conversion to sales? Do you have a future roadmap to deepen and grow your offering? What funding options are available to you? What is RDTI?

Small / Medium Enterprises (SME) and Larger Organisations: Is your customer journey aligned with how your business works and runs on a daily basis? Do you want help identifying roadblocks, and using technology to both remove those roadblocks and to leverage success? Do you need to grow and scale your offering, while ensuring you bring your customers and your people with you? Are you attracting interest in your offering, but need to improve the customer conversion rate? With market and economy changes, what technological solutions are there to pivot and adapt how you sell your offering? Is there an adjacent market, from which you could win new customers? Do you have a prioritised roadmap, to make impactful changes to your offering?

We specialise in ‘Remote First’ interactions to maximise the use of time and reduce the time spent travelling. We can accommodate Google Meet, Zoom, phone call or in-person initial meetings.
