What We Do
Foundry NZ offers independent and bespoke support to global investors and their families seeking residency in New Zealand.
From immigration and investment to property, lifestyle, philanthropy and community connection, our discreet service covers all aspects of forging a considered and meaningful presence in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Who We Are
If there’s something Foundry team Kirsty Mactaggart and Wendy Pannett don’t know about building a life in New Zealand, it’s probably not worth knowing.
Global equity market expert Kirsty, originally from Scotland, gained New Zealand residency via the investor visa process in 2018. She loves it so much she has recently become a citizen.
Aside from an impressive background in finance, infrastructure and investment, Kirsty sits on a number of New Zealand boards and has a particular interest in property, wine and art.
Wendy, a communications, brand and reputation specialist, is a born and raised South Islander.
Now involved in agriculture and tourism businesses, she’s particularly passionate about the strategic advisory she does across the philanthropic sector.
Both Kirsty and Wendy love to spend time in New Zealand’s great outdoors and are dedicated to sharing ‘their place’ with like-minded global citizens.
How We Work
Because everyone’s lives and dreams are different, Foundry offers a bespoke service, curated to suit the individual.
Discreet and independent, we’re not aligned with a particular investment and work with integrity to design and deliver a new life or adventure that fits with your family’s values and goals.
We’re especially committed to helping our clients integrate into the community.
Whether here for the long term or just a short stay, we’ll have you and your family living like locals in no time.
