TORO Studios brings you world-leading digital production from Tairāwhiti,
on the edge of Aotearoa, New Zealand.
World-leading because we are first. First to see the light dance across our
land each day. First to integrate a talent development pathway into a global
studio that creates premium content for film, television and online.
First to provide young people in regional Aotearoa with access to an
amazing global industry. We are a developer of world-first technology to
support distributed production and a dispersed workforce coalesced into a
local technology innovation centre.
Barry Soutar (Head of Technology) and Matt Cowie (Global Sales Manager) are
sharing a joint presentation on TORO Studios, their plans and perspectives
on how to achieve this ambition. Both have a long resume nationally and
off-shore building technology companies to success. Their success has been
earned at the challenging coal-face of entrepreneurship. They are national
thought leaders in the sector and regular speakers in multiple forums. They
bring an exciting and fresh view on how to build economic momentum
regionally through engaging technology markets globally.
