A blog for entrepreneurs

I've always been fascinated by how entrepreneurs build up something great from a simple idea.  These pioneers and trailblazers oftentimes have to undergo great struggles and challenges to make their dram come true.  That is partly the reason why I started this blog---to get to know there entrepreneurs and share their stories with the rest of the planet, specifically New Zealand.  The other reason why I started this blog?

This is the end result of an ethnic forum I attended last May 2014 in Hamilton organised by the Ministry of Ethnic Affairs.  I was blown away by the talks and presentations done with regards to migration as well as the contributions to the NZ economy done by the migrant entrepreneurs.  From then on, I was on the lookout on how to nurture, propagate, grow, promote, and advance entrepreneurship here in my new country.  This blog also experienced its birth pains during the first couple of months.  Even up to the present, its still evolving into a more dynamic blog.  It's now perfect but a work in progress.  This is not just my journey but our journey in discovering Kiwi entrepreneurship, creativity, innovation and grassroots activism.
