Business Link Pacific (BLP) has launched its online business tools in the iTaukei language.
Director Steve Knapp revealed this during an interview in Lautoka on Wednesday.
“It would be really interesting to see how we can translate into other local languages across the Pacific to make those business tools more accessible to small businesses,” Mr Knapp said.
The company also held its two-day workshop at the Nalagi Hotel in Nadi early this week.
“This is the first time that we have been able to get everybody together in one place.
“We have been working remotely by email or zoom calls, but this is the first time we have been able to get everybody together to be able to meet and see each other face to face, and we are from all over the Pacific and it is really exciting.”
According to Mr Knapp, Business Link Pacific is a New Zealand government-funded program delivered by DT Global.
“Nine years ago, we first started and small businesses struggled all the way through COVID-19, we have been able to help them with small grants and access to finance, and business support services.”
“And we are already starting to see some of those businesses flourish and be very successful.”
