The Booster Wine Group, now the Tahi Fund’s largest investment, is an amalgamation of four prominent New Zealand wine companies spanning the Hawke’s Bay, Nelson, Marlborough, and Central Otago regions. This month we showcase the upgraded facility at the Awatere River Winery in Marlborough.

This month we explore why the Middle East matters for global markets. How geopolitical tensions in the region can disrupt supply chains, influence oil prices, inflation, and economic stability worldwide.

This month we showcase three companies within the Booster Innovation Fund – Mars Bioimaging, Hot Lime Labs and MACSO Technologies. These companies are prime examples of high-potential, early-stage investment built on NZ innovation.

Our theme this month is the inflation taming efforts of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand and the link between inflation and interest rates.

Widening Booster’s direct investments in attractive, unlisted NZ assets – helping local Iwi fund the purchase of 40 Wellington school properties.
