Techweek is a nationwide series of events, showcasing and celebrating New Zealand innovation. We provide a platform for everyone to meet, share ideas and create connections to enhance our future world.
The intention behind Techweek is simple. New Zealand’s technology and innovation sectors are growing rapidly and Techweek fosters that growth by providing the national ecosystem with a week-long opportunity for connection and collaboration. Techweek is an independent platform where individuals and organisations can showcase their unique and inspiring innovation stories.
Techweek is a mix of live, virtual and hybrid events so there’s something to suit everyone. Physical events will be carried out right across the country, while virtual events can be attended and enjoyed from anywhere in the world!
Techweek is not only a tech festival, but a platform designed to help communities, educators, businesses and organisations create, promote and run successful virtual, hybrid and physical tech events across New Zealand.
Techweek 2022's festival was a call to action for Aotearoa to tell its story. With opportunities to demonstrate how technology can help keep people connected and the economy active, by showcasing local tech talent, inspiring the next generation, and building tech capability throughout New Zealand.
