Techweek NZ

Techweek NZ 18-24 May 2026
Techweek is New Zealand's festival for tech that's good for the world. The intention behind Techweek is simple.

New Zealand’s technology and innovation sectors are growing rapidly and Techweek fosters that growth by providing the nation with a week-long opportunity for connection and collaboration. Techweek is an independent platform where individuals and organisations can showcase their unique and inspiring innovation stories. Techweek23 will be a mix of live, virtual and hybrid events so there’s something

to suit everyone. Physical events will be carried out right across the country, while virtual events can be attended and enjoyed from anywhere in the world!
