Connectivity powered by the right people
Lightwire Business
Lightwire started as a university project with the intention of leveraging fixed wireless technology to ensure rural school kids had access to the internet. Lightwire is now New Zealand’s largest independent wireless service provider with over 8,000 connected end points across the Waikato and Bay of Plenty.
From this Lightwire Business was born. Equipped with the best people in the field, we’re able to deliver internet, bespoke WANs, Teams Calling, managed 3CX services and managed hardware solutions across Australia and New Zealand.
Through our New Zealand and Australian operations, we’re committed to delivering fast, reliable Trans-Tasman broadband solutions for wholesale, channel, and enterprise clients on either side of the ditch.

sustainability
We genuinely care about making a positive impact through our corporate social responsibility efforts.
We’ve a unique opportunity to do good by supporting our communities and protecting the environment. Whether it’s reducing our carbon footprint or helping bridge the digital divide, we’re all about making a difference. For us, it’s not just about providing great services; it’s also about being a responsible and caring part of the community.
We’ve already planted more than 3,500 trees since 2018 and have committed to stepping that up by planting a further 22,500 trees over the next 4.5 years (read more about the tree planting initiative here). Given a single fully grown tree absorbs about 48 pounds of carbon in a year, we are looking at building up towards a 120,000-pound annual offset.
Our next steps are to help our partners achieve their own sustainability goals, which includes funding and support for our team.
