Interesting :) How about VC / Angel / funding scene? Is it pretty vibrant there? PS. The only downside to your offer is the weather, I like my weather 20-30*C

PS. The only downside to your offer is the weather, I like my weather 20-30*C :) I've been to Auckland and Wellington before and I struggle with the cold even during summer.
- polemic 11y agoVC / Angel scene is a big issue at the moment, but improving. Capital is tight. That said, if you have a bit of track-record, the 'smallness' of NZ means you can often raise small amounts off the back of reputation. Then you probably want to look overseas for serious money. Or do a Xero and IPO locally - they've shown local 'normal' investors how forgoing profit for growth can work. Also: the wildlife isn't venomous, the trees are not explosive and the sharks don't bite. Met with a friend from Sydney yesterday - she was enjoying the low 20s here after baking in 30+ in Sydney for the last few days. TBH it's a few degrees difference that you acclimatise too - you're not going to need a new wardrobe.
