Matching what’s good in Wanaka
with what’s good for the world.

Our vision at Criffel Futures is to build a place-based, globally connected agrifood innovation ecosystem rooted in Wānaka, delivering long-term value for people, land, and the economy.

We work at the intersection of agriculture, food and health – connecting and integrating across disciplines to shape the health of our future.

Our Purpose

Criffel Futures exists to lift the value, resilience and wellbeing of New Zealand’s food & fibre sector by connecting people, science, landowners and markets to create joined-up solutions that improve environmental outcomes, strengthen regional economies, and contribute to global food and nutritional security.

Place-based and globally connected

We bring people and knowledge together to explore what’s possible and create solutions that work in the real world.
We do this under three pillars:

  1. Venture Creation & Commercialisation

Helping New Zealand lift value, capability, innovation and long-term regional resilience. We complement — not duplicate — the work of accelerators, research organisations, councils and industry bodies.

2. Global Connectivity & Partnerships

Linking people, research, landowners, markets and opportunities — locally, nationally and internationally.

3. Leadership, Talent & Community

Developing the next generation of leaders.

 

Best practice globally suggests national outcomes begin with regional leadership and action.

For Criffel Futures, turning vision into action starts with connecting the best minds across science and strategy to create transformational change.

We are interested to connect with people to share perspectives and how these connections may evolve into new initiatives to take action.
