The Government will provide up to 50 per cent of the total funding required for the projects.
A second round of funding is now open for applications and will close at the end of the month and the successful projects will be announced later this year.
This week's TRENZ show comes as New Zealand tourism operators face increased competition from other countries for their slice of the $1.6 trillion of spending by international travellers.
Other countries, notably Australia and the United States, are investing heavily in promoting themselves to the world. And while the number of tourists coming here has recovered since the global financial crisis, the average amount each visitor spends has fallen over the past decade, which has been worrying tourism chiefs.
Tourist Industry Association chairman Grant Lilly said earlier this week that New Zealand operators could not be complacent because of the growing competition. The bar keeps on going up, others are getting smarter at doing things differently.
