About the event

2026 is going to be a defining year for Aotearoa’s startup ecosystem and there is no better way than to kick things off with a bit of a party!

Join us for the Founder-Operator Welcome Back Party, powered by Lumin.



Who it’s for

This event is designed for operators, founders, and leadership teams in the startup community. This one is a strict one. 2 x people from each company. You must be part of a startup and you must be a founder, operator or an investor.



Partner spotlight: Lumin

We’re proud to partner with Lumin, the NZ-built document and workflow platform used by millions globally. Lumin streamlines collaboration, signing, approvals, and processes so teams can move faster and scale smarter - exactly what you as a company needs heading into 2026. If you’re growing teams, expanding markets, or tightening operations this year, Lumin is the engine behind high-velocity execution.
