NZ network wins global Kea mobile pitch

AUCKLAND, Friday: NZ-founded digital comms agency Topham Guerin (offices in Sydney, Auckland, Beijing and London) has won a pitch for the Kea global creative partnership. There was no incumbent.

Kea is a public/private partnership, supported by NZTE, MFAT and MBIE, leveraging the power of the mobile app to enable mobile users to tap into global networking opportunities.

The Kea app allows users to list events, meet Kiwis at events, search for Kiwi organisations, among others.

Topham Guerin has offices in Auckland, London and Sydney.

“Being able to share the inspiring stories of our offshore Kiwis with the wider community is crucial in ensuring the next generation of entrepreneurs understand the opportunities available to them.”

“Kea’s commitment to showcasing inspiring stories of Kiwi and Kiwi businesses all around the world will be elevated thanks to the signing of a global partnership,” said Topham Guerin APAC MD Sam Newton.

Kea ceo Toni Truslove says being able to draw on Topham Guerin’s “impressive” track record of engaging communities will substantially elevate and increase the reach of Kea’s storytelling.

“Being able to share the inspiring, world-leading stories of our offshore Kiwis with the wider New Zealand community is crucial in ensuring the next generation of Kiwi entrepreneurs understand the opportunities and possibilities available to them.

“Partnering with Topham Guerin allows us to combine these incredible stories with world class digital creative to truly showcase and engage our community.”
