Te Ōhaka teams up with Wynn Williams to help startups thrive.


Ministry of Awesome and Te Ōhaka – Centre for Growth & Innovation are pleased to announce today that we have formally agreed to work with Wynn Williams as Te Ōhaka’s national legal sponsor.  This is an invaluable relationship for the 23 high growth startups who are working to grow and scale alongside the support of the Te Ōhaka startup community and advisors.

In their early stages, high growth startups are at their most vulnerable and surrounding themselves with excellent leadership, experience, and professional legal expertise will help them navigate what can be a confusing growth journey towards success.

Wynn WilliamsCorporate and CommercialPartners, Phoebe Davies and Charlene Sell,  shared their expertise with the startup teams on the subject of Business Structures and Capital Raising earlier this week as part of the Te Ōhaka Fireside Chat series.  The following day, they ran a 2 hour startup clinic which was fully booked by founders.

As part of our partnership, the Wynn Williams legal team will return quarterly for the themed Fireside Chat event and will run Startup Clinics every 2 weeks at Te Ōhaka in order to ensure the resident founders have access to the legal support they need to successfully navigate their way through the growth challenges ahead.
