Senior🎓
Top SchoolDave Moskovitz is a veteran technology entrepreneur, investor and board leader with 17+ years of formal experience and roots in New Zealand’s internet pioneers from the mid-1990s. He chairs and advises organizations spanning entrepreneurship, national infrastructure and remote-sensing, turning technical insight into governance and product-led growth for startups and public institutions alike. Awarded New Zealand Angel Association’s Arch Angel in 2018, he combines hands-on software/Internet experience with a proven track record of scaling startups to exit and guiding mission-driven organisations through digital transformation. Dave is repeatedly tapped for cross-sector roles—from advising the Christchurch Call to directing the national weather authority—reflecting rare trust at the intersection of tech, policy and civil society. He brings a pragmatic, systems-thinking approach informed by a Computer Science honours degree from UC Berkeley and long experience building developer ecosystems in Aotearoa. Outside work he balances leadership with grounded community roles—co-parenting three children, co-chairing interfaith initiatives, and even performing as a band frontman—illustrating his blend of operational rigor and human-centred collaboration.
