Kiwi agri-tech company Halter is making international headlines after raising $165 million, bringing its valuation to $1.65 billion. Featured on Markets with Madison, the company’s innovative virtual fencing and smart cow collar technology is gaining global traction—particularly in the US, where Halter is planning significant expansion.
This success story was highlighted in the latest episode of Markets with Madison, hosted by Madison Malone, who is currently in the United States as part of the NZUS Council Media Fellowship.
The NZUS Council launched the Media Fellowship to support independent, in-depth journalism that explores the growing commercial, innovation, and policy ties between New Zealand and the United States. Madison’s reporting brings these connections to life—showcasing how Kiwi technologies are solving global problems and finding their place in international markets.
The NZUS Council is proud to back journalism that shines a light on world-leading Kiwi ventures like Halter and their growing role in global agri-tech and climate-smart solution.
