New Zealand Innovation & Export Podcast

The podcast that interviews New Zealand founders and CEOs of businesses that are growing our economy.

New Zealand’s future prosperity is dependent on two things – more innovation and more exports. This podcast exists to share the stories of founders and CEOs who are already doing it, and unpack the decisions behind their growth.

Hosted by Josh Moore from Duoplus, each episode is an honest conversation about how New Zealand businesses grow through innovation and win offshore. You’ll hear the good calls, the hard lessons, and the parts of the journey you don’t usually get to hear.

If you’re a founder, operator, investor, or anyone serious about building something bigger than our domestic market, this podcast is for you.
