In 2007, UP merged with successful expat IT network The Wellington IT Expats (The Wellies).
Both networks have grown substantially over the past three years, now boasting more than 2500 members combined. Under the merger, The Wellies will be incorporated under the Unlimited Potential banner with special events catering for the expat community added to UP’s annual event calendar.
The Wellies was set up in 2006 to assist IT professionals and their partners to migrate to and settle in Wellington. In a little under three years, the group has grown to over 550 members, of which around 70% are in Wellington, and 30% are preparing to migrate here.
The Wellies are represented on the Executive Committee by the Expat Officer.
