Cleantech Trek Auckland - Waste to Value

Reading time: 2 minutes

What's in this article

    Following on from successful Cleantech Treks, such as the one to Singapore, the 'NZ Cleantech Mission' invites you to a 1-day trek around Auckland. During the day you’ll visit some of New Zealand’s leading Waste to Value innovators. 

    Aquafortus, Mint Innovation, and Avertana will share their exciting journeys to date, and show you first hand how they're scaling their groundbreaking technologies. We'll also visit NZ Steel, where you’ll learn about their potential land development innovation opportunities and net-zero goals.

    Join us aboard our comfortable coach, ensuring you steer clear of parking hassles, while having plenty of opportunities to connect with other industry leaders. During the Trek we'll pause for lunch near Glenbrook, and as the day winds down, we'll finish off with networking time and pizza at Outset Ventures in Parnell.

    We have around 30 spots available for one representative per company, so don't miss out on this amazing opportunity! Register your interest before Wednesday 9 August and join us on the bus for an inspiring day of innovation and networking. 

    This trek is brought to you by Callaghan Innovation, NZTE, Auckland Unlimited, Uniservices and Ara Ake. If you have any questions reach out to Phil Anderson from Callaghan Innovation (phil.anderson@callaghaninnovtaion.govt.nz) or Chris Burgess from NZTE (chris.burgess@nzte.govt.nz)
