SXSW 2024

Innovation From the Edge of the Earth

Description:

It’s a challenge innovating out of a small corner of the Pacific Ocean which is a three hour flight to anywhere else and whose economy is driven by agriculture. Despite this, digital innovation is an exciting part of Aotearoa/New Zealand's future.

Come and hear how these tech leaders are turning these challenges into an advantage and building global businesses from down under.

The tech and startup scene in Aotearoa/New Zealand is still young (like our nation), and is developing a unique culture due to both scale and our emerging cultural identity.
