Come on Whakatane! We desperately need your support to become New Zealands first town with 1 Gigabite per second internet connection.
How It Works
'Gigatown' will be the first town in the Southern hemisphere to access a one gigabit per second (1Gbps) internet connection.
How do we decide who gets to be Gigatown? Actually, we don't decide - you do.
We're looking for the town that wants it the most. There’s two ways we’ll be measuring that drive, enthusiasm and determination to be Gigatown:
1. by listening out for the town with the loudest voice on social media; ( use this tag on your Whakatane posts - #gigatownwhk )
2. by tallying up the supporters for each town signing up on this website.
