Electra Business Breakfast was an independent B2B network that aimed to INSPIRE, CONNECT and ENGAGE.  It took place on the first Wednesday of each month, except January. Electra was the Sponsor contracting Kāpiti Business Projects to plan and deliver breakfast until 30 September 2025.

Successful businesses are key to successful communities.  Electra Business Breakfast was an open, friendly and professional meet-up over a full English breakfast (GF, DF, vegan/vegetarian options included) with excellent speakers.  It was an opportunity to meet new people as each guest chose a random table number to mix-up networking.  Bring your business cards - EVERYONE was WELCOME!

IMPORTANT UPDATE ABOUT ELECTRA BUSINESS BREAFKAST 12-10-25

After nearly a decade of inspiring, connecting, and engaging the local business community, the time has come to close the door on Electra Business Breakfast as an independent professional network.

Since 2016, Kāpiti Business Projects has proudly planned and delivered 104 events at Southward Car Museum, with the support of Electra as lead sponsor.  Over this time, the programme welcomed 9,153 registrations, averaging over 1,000 attendees annually, and achieved an impressive Net Promoter Score of 61, reflecting the value and impact of the events.

Electra’s sponsorship played a vital role in keeping the programme accessible and Southward Car Museum also generously supported us with their venue, helping us deliver consistently high-quality experiences for attendees and speakers.

However, in March 2025, the venue advised they could no longer accommodate our regular booking beyond 30 September due to internal operational constraints, and new terms that were not viable for the programme’s continuation.  Shortly thereafter, Electra shared their decision to step back as lead sponsor, effective 30 September, aligning with the venue.

Without significant sponsorship or a suitable alternate venue, Kāpiti Business Projects has made the difficult decision to wind up and exit the business breakfast in its current form.  While this marks the end of an era, we remain open to transferring the programme’s intellectual property to others working in local economic development, potentially paving the way for a new chapter, perhaps under the banner of “Kāpiti Business Breakfast.”

On behalf of the team and our suppliers, it has been a privilege to plan and deliver Electra Business Breakfast since 2016.  We thank everyone who has been part of the journey, and welcome enquiries from those interested in continuing the legacy.

As we close the chapter on this event, its digital profile will remain publicly accessible for a while longer.  This is a gesture of appreciation for our long-standing sponsor, Electra, whose generous support and commitment over the years played a vital role in shaping the success of the programme.  We’re proud to acknowledge their contribution as part of the event’s legacy and the impact we have made together.
