New Zealanders are ‘technology savvy’. We are enthusiastic early adopters of a whole range of new technologies and are the most ‘connected’ people in the world based on our internet usage. We have one of the highest mobile phone penetration rates and no one uses cash cards as much as we do!
Even though we’re geographically small, our sophisticated telecommunications networks link us instantly to the world, making it easy to keep in touch. Our international airports offer daily services to the US, Europe, Asia and around the Pacific, and our banking and financial systems are world class.
