FUJIFILM seeks partners in Napier & Nelson for new programme

FUJIFILM Business Innovation New Zealand (FBNZ) has announced an extension of its Growth Partners Programme, calling for expressions of interest from individuals in the Napier and Nelson regions. This initiative seeks individuals who are not only knowledgeable about technology but also passionate about aiding their local business communities. Growth Partners act as exclusive sales and field support agents for FUJIFILM in their regions.

The Growth Partners Programme was initially introduced in June 2023, aiming to identify and partner with local figures across New Zealand who have the expertise and drive to assist local businesses in overcoming challenges and adopting smarter work practices.

“Since launching our Growth Partners Programme we've had interest from right across New Zealand. Our first partner was announced in October 2023 and now that they’re off and running, we're turning our focus to Napier and Nelson as the next two areas where we see particular opportunity,” said David Jupe, Managing Director of FBNZ.

He added, “We're looking for partners with deep roots in these two communities who are keen to apply their local knowledge to help businesses in their areas utilise FUJIFILM technology.”

Jason Flynn, Co-Owner and General Manager of Central Business Innovation (CBI), was the first Growth Partner announced by FBNZ. His territory includes New Plymouth, Palmerston North, Whanganui, and Masterton. Flynn reflected on his experience over the past six months as a Growth Partner, stating, “We've had a strong start building a local business through the FBNZ Growth Partners Programme, and I think our connections to the local communities have played a key role in helping us get off on the right foot.”

He encouraged others to consider the opportunity, saying, “I'd encourage people to reach out to FBNZ to learn more about its Growth Partners Programme and the opportunity it presents.”
