  5. Additional $2,000 Funding Through Government Support
Regional Business Partner Network

The Regional Business Partner Network is making available $2,000 funding for eligible Auckland based businesses to receive 1:1 advice to help them through the COVID-19 crisis. This is a limited fund available until 30th June 2020.

Orb360 is working in collaboration with The Engine who are approved service providers to the network with to deliver programs for co-funding and now a fully funding support COVID-19 Programme (CAPPED AT $2000), with potential co-funding thereafter.

We would only be able to help 20 Businesses only, on a first come first serve basis.

Here is how ATEED plans to deliver the funds allocated for Auckland.

There are limited funds, intended to support businesses with 1:1 advice to help them through this initial crisis period. ATEED wants to support businesses by investing in professional advice which they fully fund with the criteria below.

To do so they will be limiting the value to each eligible business to $2000 – we are happy to move clients to the co-funding model as we move out of this crisis period. As advised above The Engine is approved to deliver to businesses utilizing this funding.

ATEED have advised that the criteria to consider before we refer you is:

  1. That you are an employer;
  2. Your business was generally sound prior to the COVID-19 challenge and with the right support should survive to provide jobs and income in the future;
  3. You do need the financial support from RBPN for coaching;
  4. The COVID-19 crisis is affecting your business.

The Engine have formed an immediate taskforce of Advisor/Coaches from our provider pool within The Engine to engage with eligible businesses. With this in mind, we have profiles on all our provider advisors here.
