Who We Are

The BizDojo was started by a couple of like-minded humans sharing a collective enthusiasm for people and success.

In its fruitful two years of life, the company has flourished beyond its wildest expectations, growing from a tiny bean of a founding office to almost an entire floor in the architectural icon that is the Ironbank Building in Auckland's colourful Karangahape Road.

The BizDojo is now poised to propagate throughout the world. Our second Dojo opened in Wellington in June 2011, with further spaces planned in Christchurch, London, San Francisco, Berlin and Shanghai.

"Once all these people are in the space, they start trusting, interacting, and solving problems together; they fuse together, and recognise solutions."

"The BizDojo is all about the residents. It's not about us, it's about you. All our residents are ambitious, self-motivated innovators."

"Coming from the arts, I love to see peoples creative ideas turned into reality. Now working at the BizDojo, I'm excited about seeing those ideas turn into business. My job is to make sure the space works for you, that you're connected to the right people, at the
right time."
