The Icehouse is where kiwi businesses grow
Through our nationwide events, workshops and programmes we give startups and SMEs access to the expertise, networks and funding they need to achieve their growth aspirations and become Businesses of International Quality (BIQs).
No matter what stage you're at (just a wild idea or been around for 20 years) we can get alongside and
help you grow

EXPERTISE

Through our growth programmes, one-on-one mentoring and access to a huge pool of talented and experienced facilitators, coaches and business people we can help you learn the skills and techniques you need to build a business, drive progress and succeed.
