The Business Centre proudly hosted the 2017 Regional Incubator Pilot Program pitch at their new location in Newcastle West. 
The 14-week program consisted of intensive workshops, business advisory support and one-on-one mentoring sessions. Eight start-ups were then prepared to launch their business and pitch to potential investors.
 
Progressing through to pitch at the IQ Event to be held this month were ScrubIt, Mobito and Corridor Insights. Gordon Whitehead, Business Advisor at The Business Centre said how impressed everyone was by the ideas and strength of the teams involved in the inaugural program. “The hard work each of the start-ups have put into the program was noteworthy,” said Gordon.
 
The idea of pitching an innovative idea to investors can be terrifying. For new ideas to prosper, delivering a great pitch with confidence is crucial. The program serves as a reminder that from little things big things can certainly grow. 
The Business Centre will continue to serve as an incubator for businesses under its Start House 100 program. Start House will accelerate the successful development of 100 innovative start-ups over the next five years. It intends to see 50 women founders graduate and to create 500 high value jobs across the Hunter and Central Coast regions.
