Cultivating and collaborating
NAI is a venture studio that creates artificial intelligence solutions for global environmental problems.
Our vision is global, and we work with people and partners the world over. We build AI applications with the potential for global environmental impact into viable ventures.
Why?
There is no reason why new ventures can’t benefit the planet as well as create a profit. We believe this is needed more than ever. But developing high-impact companies takes more than a great idea and technical knowledge. It takes funding and a wealth of experience, skills and networks. We can provide that.
How?
Our development model is the venture studio. We provide a stable team of experts and the support to develop concepts into growth ventures.
Who?
We are a group of technology founders, engineers and scientists.
We’ve built and sold companies across the globe, patented inventions at institutions like Stanford University and worked on the cutting edge at Google, NASA, Microsoft and IBM.
Where?
We’re located in Nelson, New Zealand, a great place to live and a great innovation ecosystem to develop new ideas. Although we’re based in New Zealand, it does not mean that NAI can’t work with people from other countries. Our vision and solutions are global, and we want the companies that start at NAI to have a presence beyond New Zealand’s shores.
