CEO Hengjie talks on Business Hub and NewstakZB. Chair Bob twitters that Kami should make #1 in the Deloitte Fast 50. Kami is FKA's #02 portfolio company, born out of the Velocity competition at Auckland Uni.
Kids do BYOD, we do BOYV, your own 4x4 this Sunday from 1100 to 1600. Sharon from LoveMyNewZealand is providing food, the Auckland 4x4 Club is making it safe on Muriwai Beach, and Katheren is coordinating at our end. $100 per vehicle, GO! [email protected]

Michael and Rudi swapped latte and GIF art awhile back in Auckland. Now Michael has his sights set on a cafe on his home turf in Blenheim. Not an Angel deal but he needs Angels to help where the banks don't. 

For our angelic friends at AIM, Brian Dawson? Nelson Angels, Matthias Andermatt? Or a coffeephile anywhere in NZ? Get in touch with Michael!


Of course, Michael was behind this coffee fit for a Chief Cat Herder.
