Welcome to Wellington’s
tech community
A walk through Wellington’s Tech Sector
Home to companies like Hnry, Sharesies, Xero, Wētā FX and PikPok, Wellington has a track record of building technology that make an impact here and around the world.
These pages are full of examples of inspiring people, initiatives and businesses working across SaaS, CleanTech, Fintech, CreativeTech and GovTech – just some of the sectors our talent and companies are building both locally and globally.
We invite you take a journey with us through the sector.
Wellington is home to a vibrant tech ecosystem
Here in one of the world’s most connected and walkable innovation ecosystems, Wellington’s founders are building scalable, globally ambitious companies across fintech, AI, SaaS, climate tech, creative tech and more – punching well above our weight with a strong community.
Founders, local Iwi, creators, scientists, engineers, researchers and supporters – working shoulder to shoulder at the intersection of government, universities and industry. Many pathways, one goal: to start, scale and grow globally ambitious companies from Wellington.
