FoundX Dunedin Meetup

Join us for a fireside chat hosted by Scott Mason of Findex with special guest Mike Maguire, founder and co-owner alongside his brother Patrick Maguire of Aeroe, a Dunedin-based start-up.  As ex-professional rugby players with more than 15 years experience in the bike and design industries, they certainly have lessons to share.   Whether you're carrying a water bottle or two-person tent, Aeroe believe that securing travelling gear to your bike should feel as easy as, well, ... riding your bike. From design in Dunedin to taking on retail across the world, Aeroe has had ups and downs and merry-go-rounds, which is why this story is one not to be missed.
