How can I get funding for my Marketing?

If you have aspirations to grow your business you might also be eligible for an RBPN Capability Development Voucher, which is offered through the Regional Business Partners network. Government run scheme RBPN Capability Development Vouchers are available to businesses to use as partial payment towards the cost of capability development and training for Max Marketing Development Programmes.

To be eligible for a voucher a business must be:

  • Operating with 50 or less FTEs
  • Be GST registered in New Zealand
  • Operating in a commercial environment – i.e. is currently trading
  • Be privately owned or a Māori Trust or Incorporation under the Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 or similar organisation managing Māori assets under multiple ownership
  • Have undergone assessment by a Regional Business Partner.

Business should ideally:

  • Be exporting, have export potential, be involved in the export supply chain or have the potential to contribute to economic growth in the region
  • Demonstrate commitment to improving management capability. Indicators of commitment include the fact they have sought advice, have worked through the assessment process and are willing to co-fund capability building activities and make the required time commitment; and
  • Have an identified gap in its capability that can be addressed through management capability building and training.

To receive a Capability Development Voucher, a business must be registered on the Accelerate Success website.
