Halting funding for the World Health Organization during a world health crisis is as dangerous as it sounds. Their work is slowing the spread of COVID-19 and if that work is stopped no other organization can replace them. The world needs @WHO now more than ever.

In 2009, @Datacom revenue grew by 35% (compared with 2% by the TIN100). CEO Greg Davidson attributed this to frugality on non-essential expenditure making them leaner & more agile than competitors. What trends will emerge in the 2019 TIN Report tomorrow? tin100.nz/2PjQ3ii

How can we give back to the community knowing that 100% of what you donate is going to them? Fundy is a site that where people can choose how to donate where us or the charity don’t take a cut. - Well done Team Fundy #Datacomp2019 #innerwealth “Don’t give change- make a change”

Hey @AKL_Airport when valet parking takes 40mins at 1am (and in fact you couldn’t find the car) perhaps look at your system. Your guys on the desk were doing their best.

Thank you @KPMGNZ our new sponsor for @ArcAngelsNZ hosting a special evening talking to Ngaio Merrick, who if you don’t know, you should.
Where art and angel investment intersect, @KateLanetweet founding member of @ArcAngelsNZ says it’s similar to investing in entrepreneurs, the passion of it, the beauty of the proposition but with the same imperative.

Some wise words @ArcAngelsNZ from John Ohara @AngelAssn on leadership qualities “@fuel50 is a good example...doesn’t need to be aggressive but need to have self belief...there is no second prize...
