2011 kicks off with the confirmation of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Wellington region’s key early stage support organisations: Angel HQ, Creative HQ, Industrial Research Ltd and VicLink. 
The MoU articulates a vision to set up a local collaboration for innovation in the Wellington Region. This collaboration will act as a clearing house for the following purposes:
- Reviewing selected projects, identifying support partners, and recommending the projects for funding and/or further evaluation.
- Providing early stage guidance to businesses propositions with a view to creating better investment propositions.
- Analysing the needs of innovative businesses and coordinating the collaborating partners to respond to these.
Its the result of several leaders in the early-stage ecosystem getting together, determined to find a win-win approach to working together, supporting and sharing knowledge and resources so that our emerging businesses have the best chance of success. Watch this space for the first projects to work their way through the process.
