Pivot Innovation’s Launch Support service is designed to help physical product creators — from emerging startups to established brands — get their work into the world with clarity and confidence. Whether you’re based in Queenstown or building remotely, we can support you through the final stretch.
What We Offer
From startup makers to scaling product brands, we tailor support to fit your stage. Choose from bookable sessions or get in touch for custom content and launch support.
Local Maker Support
Turning an idea into a manufacturable product is hard—but it doesn’t have to be lonely or unclear. At Pivot Innovation, we provide targeted support for early-stage founders, designers, and product teams who are building something real. Whether you’re refining your first prototype or preparing for production, our goal is to help you move forward with confidence.
​
Each of our sessions is built around actionable advice, not theory. We are backed by over 20 years of hands-on experience in engineering, manufacturing, and helping startups succeed.
We’ve worked with everyone from scrappy hardware startups to global OEMs like NASA, McLaren, and Rolls-Royce...and we bring that same level of care and clarity to every call, workshop, or walkthrough.
So whether you're early in your journey or refining a growing brand, we help make good ideas visible and launch-ready.
