Fintech Festival 2026
16 April 2026 | 2 – 7 PM | Shed 6, Wellington
Come celebrate the founders graduating from Fintech Lab 2026
We’re bringing the Kiwi startup community together to celebrate this industry and the ambitious founders leading the way.
Fintech (Financial Technology) is more than just the fastest-growing tech sector in New Zealand – it’s a game-changer.
These startups create jobs, enable more Kiwis to build wealth, create healthy competition in the finance industry – all while generating valuable intellectual property for NZ. When they thrive, the benefits ripple through our entire economy.
Come along to NZ’s Fintech Summit, sponsored by Mastercard. A day to celebrate startups, kiwi innovation and the people investing in the future of NZ.
