Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development (ATEED)

ATEED​ merged with Regional Facilities Auckland to become Tātaki Auckland Unlimited in December 2020. The merger was the result of a review of council-controlled organisations (CCOs).

What ATEED did

ATEED helped create a future of prosperity and opportunity for Auckland, by:

• leading and supporting initiatives and networks that attract talent and investment
• boosting business and job creation
• fostering innovation and an entrepreneurial culture
• growing our visitor economy by attracting international events and visitors from around the world
• shaping Auckland's identity to stand out globally.

ATEED was part of the Auckland Council family, and partnered within the family and with others – corporates, government agencies, industry clusters and universities – to build a business environment that thrived on new thinking and collaboration.

ATEED helped Auckland businesses grow, innovate and become export ready, playing a part in nurturing a skilled local workforce through a number of initiatives.

With city-to-city relationships increasingly driving global investment, ATEED also promoted Auckland to high-value visitors and created chances for trade growth through these relationships, including the Tripartite Economic Alliance with Guangzhou and Los Angeles.
