SMARTER WORKER ACCOMODATION

Can technology solve issues with worker accommodation?

Carmen Blacker saw problems with seasonal workers in our region finding accommodation.

So - she created a solution - "The WAN" (The Worker's Accommodation Network).

Come along to our first Idea Lab for Wanaka for 2021 to hear how Carmen came up with her concept for the WAN, and her startup journey.

About The WAN

Every year seasonal workers support our communities. They’re lifties up the mountain, fruit pickers in the orchard, baristas in the cafe down the road. The WAN is here to support them.

The Workforce Accommodation Network (the WAN) connects accommodation to seasonal workers, engaged and verified by your favourite local businesses.
