Company-X
Hamilton
Company-X is a Hamilton-based software development company, founded in 2012, with a team of more than 50 New Zealand-based specialists. Alongside broader custom software work for clients such as the New Zealand Police, Waka Kotahi, and Bayer, Company-X has built a strong reputation in virtual reality simulation for defence and maritime training. Its VR systems allow the Royal New Zealand Navy to train personnel in scenarios including landing helicopters on frigates, diver rescue procedures, and turbine repairs, improving safety and reducing the cost of live training exercises. The company's defence VR work has expanded internationally through a partnership with UK-based Babcock International, taking New Zealand-built training technology to defence forces overseas. Company-X combines deep software engineering capability with practical, mission-focused VR product development, making it one of the country's leading examples of XR technology built for genuinely high-stakes operational use.
