    How to Deploy $5 Billion in New Zealand's New Wave of Tech Startups

    The former London financier who funded Harry Potter now controls the single biggest lever in New Zealand’s startup ecosystem—and he’s on a mission to deploy billions.In this episode of TechMates, we sit down with James Pinner, the Chief Investment Officer of New Zealand Growth Capital Partners (NZGCP). James isn't your typical government official. After spending 15 years in London’s cutthroat capital markets (including financing the early Harry Potter films) and managing dynastic wealth for the 150-year-old Todd Corporation, he stepped into the public sector with a massive mandate: architecting the future of New Zealand's venture ecosystem.James drops bold truths on the state of the market, including why New Zealand has a "zombie startup" problem, his highly contrarian take on why Kiwi AgTech actually struggles to scale globally, and the urgent need to wake up the $120 billion "sleeping giant" of KiwiSaver funds. From navigating dual-use defense technology to doubling down on the booming aerospace sector, this conversation is an absolute masterclass for founders looking to raise capital and anyone interested in the macroeconomic machinery of venture capital.🧟‍♂️ The "Zombie Startup" Problem: Why funding companies for too long traps top talent.💰 Unlocking KiwiSaver: How shifting just 1% of a $120B pool could transform the VC landscape.🚀 Deep Tech Dominance: Why space, clean tech, and medtech are New Zealand's true superpowers.🚜 The AgTech Illusion: A controversial take on why NZ's pastoral farming innovations struggle to scale globally.🎬 From Hollywood to Hardware: Lessons learned from financing blockbuster films and managing a multi-generational family office.⚔️ Defense & Dual-Use Tech: How shifting global alliances are forcing VCs to rethink defense investing.Connect with the Guest:NZGCP Website: https://www.nzgcp.co.nz/James Pinner's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-pinnerConnect with NZVC & Hosts:🔗 Learn more about NZVC: Website: https://www.nzvc.co.nzMark Pavlyukovskyy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/pavlyukovskyy/Hendrik Remigereau - https://www.linkedin.com/in/hendrik-remigereau-09a03067/Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction to James Pinner & NZGCP02:24 - From London Capital Markets to Financing Harry Potter04:31 - Lessons from Todd Corporation (150-year-old family wealth)11:37 - Does the "Number 8 Wire" mentality hurt Kiwi ambition?14:43 - New Zealand's "Zombie Startup" problem explained18:15 - Waking up the $120 Billion KiwiSaver sleeping giant25:05 - Why the government must be the highest-risk investor27:07 - NZ's biggest opportunities: Space, Clean Tech, MedTech32:15 - A controversial take on New Zealand AgTech42:00 - Geopolitics, defense tech, and shifting global alliances52:32 - How to pitch New Zealand to the rest of the world59:31 - Quick Fire: Overhyped trends, underfunded sectors, and founder mistakesIf you found value in this deep dive into the mechanics of venture capital, please hit the Like button, Comment with your thoughts on the "zombie startup" problem, and Subscribe for more high-impact conversations with tech leaders!#startups, #venturecapital, #NewZealand, #NZGCP, #investing, #deeptech, #spacetech, #entrepreneurship, #KiwiSaver, #governmentfunding, #innovation, #techpodcast, #founderjourney, #cleantech, #medtech, #startupfunding, #TechMates, #NZVC, #HarryPotter, #globalmarkets

    A Dynasty of Inventors: From the Photocopier to Orion

    Harry Gestetner’s great-great-grandfather invented the photocopier and nail clippers—now Harry is reinventing how the world sleeps after selling his first startup for eight figures at 21. In this episode of TechMates, we sit down with Harry Gestetner, a serial entrepreneur who sold his creator economy startup, Fanfix, for tens of millions while still in college. Harry shares the incredible story of his family's deep legacy in hardware innovation (dating back to the 1880s) and how he turned a simple charity project during COVID into a business that scaled to $120M in revenue post-acquisition. We dive deep into his new venture, Orion, a smart mattress topper designed to democratize sleep optimization and compete with the "Ferrari of sleep," Eight Sleep. Harry breaks down the brutal reality of hardware startups ("a month of software is easier than an hour of hardware" ), his controversial take on why founders are born and not made , and the "80/20 rule" for longevity that actually works.

    Scaling from the Edge: NZ’s Global Champions | NZVC Portfolio Day

    From challenging big banks with a $120M fintech to generating $2.2B in digital collectibles sales—this is how New Zealand founders are conquering the global stage. In this power-packed panel from NZVC Portfolio Day, we sit down with three of New Zealand’s most successful modern founders: Leighton Roberts (Co-founder of Sharesies), David Yu (Co-founder of VeVe), and Penelope Barton (CEO of Crimson Global Academy). They pull back the curtain on what it really takes to scale from "the edge of the world" to global dominance. David Yu reveals how VeVe secured partnerships with Disney and Marvel without a physical headquarters, while Leighton Roberts shares the bold branding strategy of "wearing pink and giving the middle finger" to the big blue banks. Penelope Barton discusses how Crimson turned the COVID-19 crisis into a massive tailwind for online education. From fundraising horror stories (like getting sued by your only investor) to the unique advantage of Kiwi "generalist" talent, this is a masterclass in global scaling. 🦄 Hyper-Growth: Scaling to 900k users and $2.2B in sales. 🏦 Fintech Disruption: How Sharesies democratized investing.🦸‍♂️ IP & NFTs: VeVe’s journey with Marvel, Disney, and DC.🦠 Crisis Management: Using the pandemic as a catalyst for growth. 💸 Fundraising Realities: The difference between NZ, US, and Asian capital. 🌏 Remote Culture: Building billion-dollar companies with decentralized teams.

    The Agentic AI Future | NZVC Portfolio Day

    What happens when you put a crypto veteran, a Xero co-founder, and a high-stakes lawyer on stage with a robot dog to debate the future of AI? In this special panel from NZVC Portfolio Day, we dive into the "Agentic Future" with three experts operating at very different layers of the AI stack. We are joined by Bradley So (Principal at QCL), who is disrupting the legal billable hour; Philip Fierlinger (Co-founder of Xero and Upstock), who is automating supply chains; and Lane Rettig (Core Dev at NEAR Foundation), who is building the decentralized infrastructure to power it all. From the "Minder, Finder, Grinder" theory of legal work to the 30-year journey of "AI Agents" starting at General Magic in 1992, this conversation cuts through the hype. The panelists debate whether AI is a job-killer or a productivity multiplier, the critical need for community-governed data sovereignty, and why New Zealand’s "scrappy" generalist mindset might be its biggest superpower in the AI era. 🤖 Robot Dogs & Real Tech: Kicking off with live robotics on stage ⚖️ Legal Disruption: Moving from "time billing" to "value billing" with AI 🛒 Supply Chain Agents: Turning messy emails into structured orders in one click ⛓️ Crypto x AI: Why we need community-governed AI infrastructure 📉 Job Market Myths: Why radiologists (and lawyers) are earning more with AI 🥝 The Kiwi Advantage: Why New Zealand is perfectly positioned for the AI revolution Connect with the Guests: Philip Fierlinger (Upstock): https://www.linkedin.com/in/fierlinger/ Lane Rettig (NEAR Foundation): https://www.linkedin.com/in/lane-rettig-32904b227/ Bradley So (QCL): https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradley-so-11042424/ Connect with NZVC & Hosts: 🔗Website: https://www.nzvc.co.nz Mark Pavlyukovskyy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/pavlyukovskyy/ Hendrik Remigereau - https://www.linkedin.com/in/hendrik-remigereau-09a03067/ Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction 01:48 - Bradley So: AI Disrupting the Legal Industry 07:23 - Philip Fierlinger: From General Magic to Upstock 09:12 - Lane Rettig: NEAR Protocol & AI Infrastructure 14:13 - Is the Future Utopian or Dystopian? 18:14 - Will Lawyers Lose Their Jobs?

    We Tried to Control the Weather (And Made It Worse)

    Emily Blythe skipped university to launch a quad-bike accessory business, spent years trying to clear airport fog with drones, and eventually pivoted to solve aviation’s biggest headache through data. In this episode of TechMates, we sit down with Emily Blythe, the New Zealand tech entrepreneur and CEO of Pyper Vision. Coming from four generations of pilots, Emily seemed destined for aviation—but instead of flying planes, she’s saving them from being grounded. She shares the incredible story of her first startup "Flatpak," the brutal reality of deep tech R&D, and the gut-wrenching decision to pivot Pyper Vision from fog dispersal (using chemicals and drones) to fog forecasting after discovering a flaw in the fundamental science.This is a masterclass in resilience, "missionary" founder mindsets, and how to build a global deep tech monopoly from New Zealand.
