  • Economic Development DRAFT TEXT 28/08/2008
    Annual Report 2007/08 Economic development DRAFT TEXT 28/08/2008 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OUR APPROACH Wellington has enjoyed steady economic growth in recent years. Unemployment is low, incomes are relatively high, and the city has retained a healthy government and financial sector while also making progress towards developing new high-tech and creative industries. Under the Wellington Regional Strategy, economic development agency Grow Wellington has principal responsibility for promoting economic development throughout the region. We support economic development generally through provision of many of the facilities and services that make this a great place for workers and their families to live and for businesses to locate. We also provide specific support for tourism through the marketing of Positively Wellington Tourism and the attraction of iconic events. CASE STUDY: HOMEGROWN Wellington’s waterfront rocked for the Homegrown Music Festival. Held over Anzac Weekend 2008, the Vodafone Homegrown Music Festival attracted a sold- out crowd of thousands. The festival featured 33 bands and DJs across five stages. Headline acts included a who’s who of New Zealand music: Shihad, Pluto, Kora, the Mint Chicks, Opshop, Elemeno-P, Salmonella Dub, The Black Seeds, The Phoenix Foundation, and more. All stages were either indoors or in massive marquees to ensure the event could go ahead rain or shine. Art installations, street performers and stalls for arts and crafts, food and clothing all complemented the on-stage entertainment. Festival venues, all on Wellington’s waterfront, included the TSB Arena and Shed 6, Frank Kitts Park and the Lagoon. Festival organisers encouraged use of sustainable transport to and from venues, as well as recycling of food and drink containers.
