NZ Tech Expo

NZ Tech Expo 2026 is New Zealand's first major technology exposition – a two-day gathering designed to become essential infrastructure for the country's tech ecosystem.
Held at Shed 10, Auckland on 17-18 September 2026, the expo brings together founders, investors, corporate innovators, government, and the wider tech community for qualified connections that go beyond badge scans and booth traffic.
Two Days. Two Experiences.

Day 1: The NZ Tech Exchange (Thursday 17 September)
An intimate, executive-focused experience built for depth over breadth. The day features:

Lightning Talks from founders and industry leaders
Curated Roundtable discussions on key ecosystem challenges
Structured One-on-One Conversations
Founders & Leaders Mixer

This is for decision-makers who want substantive dialogue, not small talk.

Day 2: The NZ Tech Expo (Friday 18 September)
The expo floor opens to the broader ecosystem. Expect:

Exhibitors showcasing products, platforms, and services
Live product demonstrations
Discovery sessions and ecosystem exploration
Networking at scale

Who Should Attend

Founders and scale-up leaders
Investors and venture capital professionals
Corporate innovation teams
Government and economic development agencies
Tech service providers and vendors
Anyone building, funding, or supporting NZ tech

Institutional Backing
NZ Tech Expo is supported by NZTE, The IceHouse, FinTech NZ, EdTech NZ, and Auckland Council – a coalition committed to strengthening New Zealand's technology sector.

Why This Matters
New Zealand's tech ecosystem has lacked a dedicated, high-quality annual gathering. NZ Tech Expo fills that gap – not as a one-off event, but as ongoing infrastructure for connection, discovery, and growth. The expo anchors a year-round community platform, ensuring relationships built in September continue well beyond.
This is the definitive gathering for NZ tech. Be part of the first one.

Dates: 17-18 September 2026
