Southland's Business & Innovation Centre
______
Nestled in the heart of Invercargill, 25 on Don is a vibrant and welcoming centre for business and innovation.
The hub, established in 2023 by The Southland Business Chamber, is crafted to nurture and support the thriving Southland business community.
At 25 on Don, we offer an array of flexible workspace solutions. Whether you’re looking for collaborative energy of hot-desk facilities, the privacy of your own office suite, or the dedicated meeting rooms, we’ve designed every space so that you are comfy and your clients are totally impressed! Our boardroom and training room are also available for hire, providing the perfect backdrop for your next presentation or workshop.
Our spaces are not just about functionality; they’re about creating an environment where business meets creativity, where connections are made, and where ideas flourish.
25 on Don is referred to as The Octopus. The octopus possesses three hearts, symbolising the interconnectedness and collaboration among three entities: The Southland Business Chamber, COIN South, and Coworkers (including Thriving Southland, and Te Rourou One Aotearoa Foundation).
Each heart represents the shared commitment to fostering business growth, supporting entrepreneurship, and building a strong community. Furthermore, the octopus’s tentacles serve as powerful connectors, reflecting the network and relationships established by these organisations. Just as the tentacles reach out in various directions, the Southland Business Chamber, COIN South, and Coworkers work together to connect individuals, businesses, and resources, enabling a thriving and sustainable Southland economy and business community.
