Spark's purpose is to help all New Zealanders win big in a digital world
"Our tamariki will live in, create, and lead a world far more digital than it is today, yet for some students, attaining laptop devices required for learning is a barrier""That is why we are pleased to partner with Quadrent and participate in their Green Lease initiative to provide the necessary hardware, helping to close the digital access divide."

Andrew shares how donated digital devices are transforming students’ lives, unlocking equal access to learning, opening up career pathways, and helping close the digital divide in our communities.
Students share how access to new digital devices has transformed their classroom experience, making online learning possible, speeding up their work, and empowering them to succeed in a digital-first education system.
Martin explains Spark’s commitment to bridging New Zealand’s digital divide, sharing how access to learning devices for tamariki is not just about technology, but about empowering the next generation to thrive in tomorrow’s digital world.
A great reminder of the impact we can all make. By simply taking care of their work laptops, Spark employees are helping unlock learning opportunities for students who need them most. It’s something to be proud of and a true reflection of the values Spark stands for.
Amit highlights how the Quadrent Green Lease delivers more than just technology. It enables Spark and other partners to contribute to environmental sustainability, support digital inclusion, and demonstrate real social impact.
Why Choose a Quadrent Green Lease?
The Quadrent Green Lease focuses on technology that should be regularly refreshed, bringing discipline to timely replacement. By choosing a Quadrent Green Lease, your assets will become part of the sustainable circular economy, which is the key driver for all regulated product stewardship.
Who is Quadrent’s Green Lease Suitable For?
A Quadrent Green Lease is more than just another finance product. It’s designed to allow New Zealand organisations to proactively take action to ensure your technology is reused after it comes to the end of its useful life within a corporate environment. By increasing the reuse, repair, refurbishment, recycling and responsible disposal of these devices to create a closed loop, organisations can play their part in minimising the use of resources, e-waste, pollution, and carbon emissions.
Not only does this provide peace of mind that your company is meeting its regulatory requirements, but it forms an important part of demonstrating to other stakeholders such as your investors and customers that ESG is more than an acronym in your organisation.
In comparison to purchasing, which often results in technology being discarded or underutilised, a green lease supports a sustainable lifecycle approach, ensuring maximum value and environmental benefit throughout the asset's use. Learn more about leasing vs buying.
