Business in Dunedin

Ōtepoti-Dunedin’s vision is to be one of the world’s great small cities, an ambition which can be achieved in part by growing innovative and internationally competitive industries and clusters.

A city of just over 134,000 people, Dunedin’s size is supportive of collaboration and recognised for its creativity and innovation, its high investment rate in cutting edge R&D and its established research networks.

It is renowned as a confident, competitive knowledge centre, a community where enterprise and creativity support a productive and sustainable city.

Home to the headquarters of the New Zealand Centre of Digital Excellence (CODE), and the tertiary educational powerhouses of Te Pūkenga Otago Polytechnic and the University of Otago, Dunedin has established academic and vocational pathways in support of industry ecosystems which feed burgeoning sectors of game development, technology, health innovation and design.
