• The Sustainability Zone to help businesses spend less and market their ‘green credentials’
• WHK presents the Stuff Up Room where visitors watch video of business leaders telling the untold stories of their mistakes in business and the results of their “stuff-ups” – footage everyone wants to see, and lessons everyone wants to learn.
• The National Bank Seminar Series of free, half-hour seminars covering a practical range of topics for business owners
• Attendees can take advantage of the free internet access in the Newstalk ZB Cyber Cafe to work remotely, or take time out over a coffee.

Sarah Trotman, Managing Director says the Bizzone Business Expos are going to refocus business owners and encourage them to stay focused on the important matters and stay positive, confident that they are proactively addressing the changing markets. With sponsorship from WHK, The National Bank, Newstalk ZB and Media5, support is out there for business, and signs of recovery are positive.
