Sustainablity

NZTech’s mission is to support a values-led, nationally connected tech community that is collectively lifting equity, sustainability, and prosperity for all in Aotearoa New Zealand. We aspire to become Future-Fit Business because we believe that our long-term success is tied to the value we provide to society.

Although our direct physical footprint is small, we recognise that we still have a responsibility to strive to do no harm to people or planet in the course of our work. Since 2022 we have been using the Future-Fit Business Benchmark to assess and improve our performance in environmental, social, and governance terms. This has enabled us to identify, prioritise and address shortfalls and we are committed to continuing our Future-Fit journey. A full breakdown of NZTech’s progress can be found in our Annual ESG Report available on the NZTech website.

We recognise that significant opportunities exist for NZTech to create positive impact, and speed up society’s transition to future-fitness, through the leadership and support we offer to our members. This speaks directly to our mission and vision. We are exploring the Positive Pursuits as a methodology to evaluate and describe the positive impact we are creating to enable a more equitable, sustainable, and prosperous Aotearoa New Zealand.

We will lead by example and encourage other businesses to do the same by continuing to share our progress annually through our Annual Report available on the NZTech website.
