HackAotearoa [Southern Lakes]: Co-working for startup builders

HackAotearoa is a free fortnightly co-working day for startup founders, indie hackers, designers and makers building their own thing, and this edition brings it to Queenstown and Wanaka, hosted by Rene Koehler and the Startup Queenstown Lakes team. It is not a hackathon: there is no shared challenge, no teams and no prize, just a full day to make progress alongside other builders. The day opens with an intro circle where everyone shares what they are building and what they want to get done, and closes with five-minute demos that celebrate progress rather than polish.

This session runs on Friday 16 October from 9am to 4pm at Kia Ora Digital, 7 Alpine Lakes Drive, Frankton, Queenstown, with doors and coffee at 9:00, the intro circle at 9:30, demos from 3:00 and wrap-up at 4:00. Entry is free with registration on Luma; bring a laptop and whatever you are already building, or just an idea. It suits founders, solo makers and anyone in the Southern Lakes working on their own startup who wants momentum, accountability and feedback.
