Value proposition

Aotearoa's most active tech community | Connecting, growing and inspiring our 400+ members and beyond | Join us!

Welcome to Aotearoa's most active tech community. We're an independent tech organisation that brings together businesses, tertiary and government to elevate opportunities for our 400+ members and community.

The idea for Canterbury Tech was born in 2003 when a group of like-minded CEO’s, business owner’s and tech entrepreneurs connected informally to talk about ways they could help each other and support the technology and innovation sector in Canterbury.

Since then, we have been the voice and connector of local technology companies and have seen the sector grow to become the second largest tech centre in New Zealand. It has pivoted from its traditional strengths of agriculture and tourism to a sustainable, economic future based on local, world-class technology companies.
