Kiwicon is brought to you on the sweat of a thousand hackers brows, slaving for months to crack, code, trashtalk and tweet. However, when we need something more tangible, something more fiduciary, we turn to our sponsors, who have generously endowed us with cash, goods and non-creepy favours. We heartily endorse their product and/or service, and have subscribed to their newsletter. We encourage you to consider them when procuring newsletters yourself.

For Kiwixon X we are doing the sponsorship slightly differently and have moved to a specialised tiered model. Unlike a traditional bronze, silver, gold approach will be doing something more Kiwicon-aligned
