NZGCP was established by the Crown to address the capital and investor capability gaps in New Zealand’s technology start-up ecosystem. We’re building towards a self-sustaining early-stage capital market and partner with other investors to support Kiwi start-up companies and give them the leg up that they need to succeed. To do this, our Aspire fund invests directly into high-growth tech companies at proof of concept, seed, and early expansion investment stages. Whilst Elevate is a $300m fund of funds programme that invests into venture capital funds and is aimed at filling the Series A / B capital gap. We also encourage market development through sponsorship and programme support.
