Christchurch welcomes a new icon

Located close to the airport is Christchurch’s newest purpose built conference and event facility.

The Tait Technology Centre, the new global HQ for Christchurch company Tait Communications, is opening its doors to the public with state-of-the-art conference facilities.

Opened in April 2015 by Prime Minister John Key, the new 7000 square metre building is an award winning structure in a beautiful park-like setting.

The company’s commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency has already seen the ‘green’ properties of the building being acknowledged with the receipt of a prestigious EECA award in 2014.

The spacious ground floor atrium flows through to outdoor courtyards while the first floor rooms feature stunning views, high speed internet and integrated smart technology.

The flexible conference and meeting rooms feature natural light and feature comprehensive audiovisual equipment. The numerous spaces offer multiple configurations, from an intimate meeting for 35 to cocktails for 400, and are perfect for conferences, workshops, presentations, dinners and more.

The location of the centre is both practical and easily accessible with onsite car parking available.

“We are delighted to welcome other Christchurch and Canterbury businesses to use the facilities here at this wonderful new building,” Tait Communications’ chief executive Garry Diack said.

“The vision for our new headquarters is to embrace the principles of innovation, sustainability and collaboration and to capture this vision for the new city. We hope that by hosting a wide range of conferences and events we can share our values with our fellow Cantabrians and we look forward to learning from the inspiring events that we will see here over the coming years.”

Enquiries and bookings for the function spaces at Tait Communications are managed by 360 Degree Events. The Christchurch-based event management company is on hand to assist with enquiries and to liaise with clients facilitating their ideal venue set up.
