Our Mission.
We are passionate about making a difference, to uplift and advance our Pacific business community. By enhancing their knowledge and building their business capability through business advisory, training, coaching, mentoring, networking etc.
We are intentional in creating an environment that fosters and nurtures business ideas, encourages business development and entrepreneurship, innovation and creativity and bringing our Pacific business community together, to work, support and uplift each other.
Thus, we are dedicated to setting the standards of professionalism by providing professional enabling spaces (the Hubs) to allow Pacific businesses and entrepreneurs to conduct their business activities. A place they can call their own and where they can expect to receive the necessary support they may need to start, grow and flourish. A place where we can all 'connect', 'share' and 'celebrate' our uniqueness in the world of business.

LAURA KEIL-HALL
From the small island of Samoa in the Pacific, Laura has a genuine interest and passion for sharing knowledge and helping others to develop and grow.
She has shown this through her work in the Pacific community and through the initiatives she has developed throughout her working career which spans 10 plus years. One of those initiatives, was setting up the Samoa Business Network 6 years ago which is an organisation she runs on a voluntary basis which forms the basis of many of the work she is currently undertaking. With her 10 plus years experience in the retail finance & banking industry in New Zealand coupled with her experience with dealing with different types of businesses, she knows the challenges business owners face hence the development of "The Pacific Business Hub". She has strong interpersonal, influencing and relationship building skills and she has in the span of her career built many networks to include many influential people in the local and Pacific community, in government both in New Zealand and Samoa, church organisations and the New Zealand and Pacific business and community. She has vast experience, knowledge and understanding of how to deal with people of different walks of life through her career but also through her travels abroad and will have no problem adapting her approach to reflect her audience. Laura is currently the CEO who overlooks the overall operations of The Pacific Business Hub. Laura drives the strategic plans and goals, source and create opportunities, develop and maintain stakeholder engagement and relations. Now that Walter has stepped into the business full-time, they are jointly responsible for achieving the vision and mission of the Hub. |
