NZ tech company off to Wales for international competition

Who Stole My Money - e-centre virtual company

Online budgeting service founder Grace Xue is off to Wales to represent New Zealand in the Technium Challenge International in late May, previously won by New Zealand companies Xero and TracPlus Global.

Ms Xue’s personal money management software company Who Stole My Money is the country winner for New Zealand owing to its proprietary world-first community intelligence and smart file upload engine technology, which addresses the two main problems people face in budgeting, making it extremely easy for people to get started budgeting and to manage their finances.

Government agencies Technium UK and International Business Wales (IBW), will give one company a lucrative UK business passport, enabling them to open an office in Wales and reach the 420 million+ European and UK markets.

International Business Wales spokesperson Gareth Davies says the standard of the New Zealand competition remains excellent.
