“The earthquakes encouraged people to work together. We were all facing similar challenges. We took bigger risks. We trusted each other a bit more than perhaps we normally would. We shared ideas and we supported each other.”
Many of the tenant companies ChristchurchNZ spoke to emphasised the benefits of co-location.
Dru Hill, managing director of Treshna Enterprises, says it helps to raise the bar across the building and increases the pace of change.
Treshna sells GymMaster, software for the fitness industry which helps gyms manage their members, bookings and online presence. When the company first moved into EPIC it had eight staff — it now has 36. A large map hanging on the wall in its second story offices shows the locations of its servers around the world (the company has several thousand customers in more than 70 countries).
Another upstairs tenant, CerebralFix, which McLellan used to be involved with, develops games alongside multimedia giants like Disney. Downstairs, you can find companies using AI, working with virtual reality or developing and selling innovative software solutions — like Fraame Healthcare, a company which provides solutions to organisations like the Child Cancer Foundation, enabling them to better organise and maintain client information, including case notes.
