APSS has a rich history of embracing creativity and pushing the boundaries of technology and exploration. We have an innovative and entrepreneurial environment, provide space and resources for students to grow, and cultivate a network of resources around New Zealand. Over the programme’s history a number of students have taken ideas or technology they developed at APSS and used these as the building blocks for companies.
