KāpitiTech Cluster June Meetup

Join us at Sunday Cantina in Raumati for our June KāpitiTech meetup as we look ahead to the future of the Kāpiti tech sector. This time we will be meeting for breakfast.

We'll be joined by Kāpiti local, Nate McCall who will share insights on building and exiting technology companies, scaling innovation, navigating the rapidly evolving AI landscape, and what founders and tech professionals should be thinking about as AI reshapes industries worldwide.

Following Nate's insights there will be an interactive discussion on the KāpitiTech Cluster Action Plan 2026 - 2028.
