TechNZ Programmes
TechNZ make investments in two areas: Capability and Technology.
Capability investments encourage firms seeking to develop new or more sophisticated R&D skills. Examples are engaging mentors, technology experts, working with young scientists and researchers.
Technology investments support firms to do high risk R&D that they could not manage with their own resources.
