Christchurch's Innovation Precinct
Vodafone Innov8 building has recently been completed as part of Christchurch's new multi-building project the Innovation Precinct. The drive to create a 21st-century facility despite the many distractions of building in an energised but still-under-redevelopment city had several challenges.

The InnoV8 building is the most technologically advanced office workplace in New Zealand, says Vodafone CEO Russell Stanners. Vodafone NZ is the principal tenant in the building and is also the naming tenant.
InnoV8 building is home to five levels of office space as well as a Vodafone Concept Store and the global start-up accelerator programme called Vodafone Xone.

Designed to promote natural ventilation and light, and conserve water and energy, the planet-friendly building has achieved a 5 Green Star Design rating from the New Zealand Green Building Council.

Vodafone has a long partnership with Christchurch, through good times and tough times. After the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, Vodafone provided free WiFi, charging stations, free calling for customers and relief agencies, and established the Vodafone Foundation Canterbury Fund to assist the rebuild. Now with a $50 million, 12-year investment in the region, Vodafone is building a 9,000 square metre five-level office building to form an expanded main South Island office. Upon its completion in 2016, 

Vodafone Christchurch will join London, Milan, Dusseldorf and Cairo in housing a Xone ‘innovation incubator’ to support technology start-ups. In partnership with the New Zealand government, Xone will help the Christchurch Innovation Precinct become a catalyst for creativity, increased exports and productivity.
