Cirrus was fortunate to meet and pitch to A-list investors at the recent Technology Investment Showcase in Singapore in May. This exclusive event was arranged and underwritten by NZ Government agency New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE) with the aim of attracting strategic catalytic investment to high growth potential NZ businesses.
Cirrus attracted great interest during the event, and now has a strong investor group forming around a core of specialist investors with deep knowledge of the functional, high-performance coatings space. Singapore is a growing hub for innovative and disruptive companies that are seeking growth capital to unleash their potential on the international stage.
In New Zealand, NZTE works closely with advanced technology institute Callaghan Innovation to select and support businesses that are investment-ready and are most likely to become global growth stories. Cirrus is pleased to be heading towards the NZTE fast track for global technology firms with high growth potential.
For investors this was an opportunity to hear from some of the ecosystem’s most innovative companies at an early stage of their development, and operating in sectors where they hold a compelling competitive advantage.

Property answers to rates. Private credit answers to defaults. Even the […]
The listing fee vendors pay whether the house sells or not
Australia’s property portals collect more than $2 billion a year while national listings sit flat. An Australian-built AI platform is targeting the economics, not just the interface. An Australian vendor listing a home pays a vendor-paid advertising fee on top of agency commission. Rama Dwarapudi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of RealSearch, puts a typical […]
