Achieving greatness through collaboration.
It takes a village to raise a child – and we believe it’s the same in business. That’s why we partner with other investors with aspirations of achieving great things to give Kiwi innovators the leg up that they need to succeed.
Here's how we can help you
Aspire NZ Seed Fund
For the young and daring, those just getting started and with stacks of ambition. We help the risk-takers and big-thinkers - with ideas that are a little rough around the edges - to grow.
Our Aspire fund invests directly into early-stage Kiwi technology start-ups at proof of concept, seed, and early expansion investment stages.
Elevate NZ Venture Fund
For the passionate and committed venture capital firms looking to help Kiwi tech companies develop onto the world stage.

PWC, AANZ + NZGCP Startup Investment Magazine - Spring 2023
Our latest start-up investment report is out and shows that in the first half of 2023, Kiwi investors have bucked international trends. The most recent data is showing signs of resilience in our start-up ecosystem with early-stage investors having provided $71.6m of funding for Kiwi start-ups. This data is being considered with cautious confidence as we look towards the full year results to confirm this trend.
