A social impact enterprise fostering inclusive community & workspace for women & diverse entrepreneurs who are systemically underrepresented.
We serve the underserved in tech, arts, well-being, impact & sustainability initiatives. We do so by offering work space, knowledge-based events, wellbeing events, connections & peer mentorship at a low cost to participation.
Manzana was initiated by Ché Zara Blomfield, Dil Khosa, and Rachael Peri (Ngāti Awa, Tūhoe).
Our model is a low cost membership, and sponsored spaces for Māori, Pacific Peoples, migrants, former refugees, and marginalised communities of founders.
Manzana transforms vacant inner city spaces into creative, multipurpose & inclusive entrepreneurial hubs. Our goals are to grow more diverse entrepreneurs with impactful ventures, and turn the physical spaces into virtual realms. Stay tuned!
