For this week's Business Panel Nick Mills is joined in the studio by Wellington Phoenix General Manager David Dome and Rembrandt's Managing Director David Lyford.

They look at decision making in business - how to keep Rembrandt excelling after 80 years, and growing the Phoenix with coaching choices and the academy. Is business doing better this year as a result?

Dome and Lyford talk the old partnership between the Phoenix and Rembrandt, and their respective histories of doing business in Wellington. Would they recommend doing business in the city? 

Do we need to amalgamate to compete with the Auckland? Particularly after the government's event fund going to the supercity for the Chelsea football game.

The panel discuss building business confidence in this city. In times of turmoil - what is the good happening in the city and it's businesses at the moment.

Dome shares how ticket sales have been going, their goals and what do we do about venue - could the Phoenix Men move out of Hnry Stadium and to Porirua Park?

And Lyford shares how his business is dealing with the upcoming election and fuel crisis.

For an interesting discussion on two sides of business in the capital:
