Entrepreneur to develop private managed isolation hotels
An entrepreneur behind a plan to run private-sector managed isolation hotels hopes to attract experts to help re-build the economy. Nicola Alpe and her husband Chris - who heads Jucy Rentals - returned to New Zealand from Los Angeles earlier this year. They're working with business professor David Teece, gathering leaders to formulate a detailed plan for privately run managed isolation. Ms Alpe told reporter Amy Williams it would be run as a business.
