Startup World Cup New Zealand Final

For the first time ever, Kāpiti will host the Startup World Cup New Zealand Final, powered by Pegasus Tech Ventures – the world’s largest startup pitch competition.

Startups from across the motu will go head-to-head in front of a live audience and expert judging panel at the beautiful Te Raukura ki Kāpiti. The winner will receive flights and support to pitch on the global stage in Silicon Valley on 17 October 2025, competing for a USD $1 million investment prize.

This inaugural event is more than a pitch night – it’s a high-energy celebration of New Zealand’s creativity, capability, and ambition. Expect standout founder pitches, insight from leading judges, and a vibrant crowd of innovators, investors, and changemakers.
