Texport: Tech for Export is a focused half-day showcase running alongside NZ CryptoCon on 4 June 2026, hosted by us as an official NZ CryptoCon side event. Technology is Aotearoa’s third largest export category, and this event is about showcasing the New Zealand companies building in that space — demonstrating how blockchain is a high‑value, weightless export that is being built in New Zealand and sold to the world. Texport is designed to highlight export-ready New Zealand blockchain companies and connect them with government and international delegates who are already in Auckland for NZ CryptoCon. Alongside the showcase, you can expect meaningful dialogue between industry and government, plus targeted networking focused on real commercial outcomes.
This isn’t a general crypto industry event — it’s a curated, high-quality showcase designed to put New Zealand’s blockchain sector on the global map.
At Texport, you can expect:
- A showcase of export-ready NZ blockchain companies and real-world use cases
- Targeted opportunities to connect with international delegates and commercial decision-makers
- Meaningful engagement between industry and government
- A focused half-day format designed for high-signal conversations and outcomes
Texport is built for:
- International enterprises exploring blockchain and adjacent digital infrastructure
- International investors, corporates, and sponsors attending NZ CryptoCon
- NZ blockchain founders building export-ready products and seeking global partnerships
- A small, targeted group of government and trade stakeholders focused on international growth
