Our Purpose & Meet the Team

When Microsoft colleagues with over 50+ years of combined global experience in digitally transforming organisations come together - the innovation potential is limitless. ​​

Aivy was built on the belief that business leaders and boards need better support and education in this transformational field.

Consultancys see strategy as the end product. Technology-led suppliers focus on tools and the build. Vendors just want to vend.

Our experience working at senior leadership and board level across New Zealand, Australia, the United States and APAC region told us organisations need more than this disjointed approach.

Many organisations are worried about being left behind, but are held back by a lack of expertise, production capability and independent advice.

Aivy’s vision is to become a trusted partner connecting business strategy, the AI opportunity and the technical resources to deliver powerful, transformative solutions.
