Upper Hutt On The Up
Blue Mountains Campus in Wallaceville has finally a third tenant.
Silicon - a prominent IT security and management company has joined MBIE and KiwiRail in the Buddle Building which is part of this large commercial complex.
It is expected that TransDec will move part of its operation to the Campus before the end of the year.
The Lane Street (movie and tv) Studios is now at full throttle in multiple productions.
Hitting the news tonight is the world class NZCIS in Heretaunga. The first All Blacks squad under Scott Robertson are training there as well as being accommodated within the complex which can house 400 stay-at guests.
TV One noted that the All Blacks plan to utilise the facility as often as needed and that 3 NRL clubs based in Australia have booked to use the facility for their squads (most likely for pre-season purposes) and that the Australian women's football team, the Matildas has also made a booking. It won't be long and this facility will be in great demand and by a host of different sports codes not only within NZ. Basketball and netball facilities are to be added.
At present the most notable regular users are the Hurricanes rugby teams, the Phoenix football teams and the senior Wellington Rugby Union rep teams.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
