NZVC

NZVC is an early-stage venture capital firm based in Auckland that bridges New Zealand and Silicon Valley. The firm raised US$16 million (NZ$27 million), exceeding its target, and invests in innovative NZ startups with co-founders who bring deep Silicon Valley operational experience.

NZVC has invested in companies like KiwiFibre (harakeke-based composites), Curve Biosciences (liver cancer screening), and Puralink. The fund provides founders with operational support, fundraising guidance, hiring assistance, and sales strategy alongside capital.

Co-founded by operators with experience at companies like Weta Digital, NZVC represents a new breed of NZ venture capital — combining Kiwi innovation with Silicon Valley networks, mentorship, and go-to-market expertise for global scaling.

Mission: We bridge New Zealand and Silicon Valley — investing in early-stage NZ ventures with operational support from true tech operators.
