What is EPIC?
The EPIC (Sanctuary) building was an early disaster recovery project, established to house local Canterbury businesses displaced by the crippling 2011 Christchurch earthquake.
The first commercial venture back into the red zone following the Restart Mall, EPIC now has 20 ICT / high-tech focused companies under its roof, between 250 and 300 FTEs engaging in active collaboration with each other around the building every day.
EPIC Success
Since the building first opened in October 2012 EPIC has played host to hundreds of functions, public events take place every week, collaborative projects between tenants have leapt from the woodwork in all directions, we have tenants who’ve reported revenue 100% ahead of years prior to moving into EPIC, some even experiencing as much as 400% growth.
Visitors have arrived from all corners of the globe – Google, The World Bank, Silicon Valley Investors, the US and Japanese embassy, the UK Prime Ministers office to name but a few.
The EPIC Vision
With the help of both our partners and tenants EPIC has transformed from a creative post-earthquake shelter to a buzzing hive of collaborative energy and innovation.
So while EPIC continues to thrive we turn out attention to the global potential of this initiative, connecting with like-minded people and similarly operating technology parks and business hubs around the world to build an empowering network for all parties involved.
