The team here at Grow Wellington proudly welcomes our two new Business Growth Managers.
Karen Bender and Simon Tuohy joined the Grow Wellington team two weeks ago and are excited to be helping Wellington businesses reach their full potential.
Karen, born and bred in Canada, was a finalist in last years Bright Ideas Challenge and comes to us from Creative HQ where she was a resident for her company Footfalls and Heartbeats - technology allowing your clothing to measure, record and transmit your heart rate. Karen is the Business Growth Manager for Wellington city and looks forward to helping businesses in the region and pass on advice from her own experiences.
Simon has a background in Intellectual Property, molecular biology and biochemistry. He enjoys talking with people about their fantastic ideas and is excited to help get the most out of them. Simon is now the Business Growth Manager for Porirua and Hutt Valley.
