Auckland Unlimited chief executive Nick Hill is determined to tell the whole Auckland story digitally and advance deep technology to attract quality investment.
Over the next two to three years the newly-merged Auckland Unlimited will be developing a co-ordinated cultural infrastructure plan that should bring much-debated projects back on the table, with funding options.
Defining projects such the mana whenua cultural centre, performing arts studios at Aotea Square, and even a new city stadium could come alive.
The infrastructure plan is one of the high priorities for Nick Hill, who became the chief executive of the new economic and cultural development agency Auckland Unlimited when Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development (Ateed) and Regional Facilities Auckland (RFA) merged on December 1.

OPINION
Town centre managers have worked hard to make the most of what was an impressive line-up of international events organised by Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development (Ateed) Now that Ateed has officially merged with Regional Facilities Auckland (RFA) to become Auckland Unlimited, we wait to see how this new entity will work with town centres to capitalise on future events in our biggest city.
