The Life and Adventures of Bill Buckley
Bill Buckley invites readers on an extraordinary journey through his life, showcasing the indomitable spirit and relentless innovation that have defined his successful business career. From humble beginnings to becoming a leading entrepreneur and business owner of Buckley Systems Ltd, Bill has always been at the forefront of engineering design in New Zealand.
Bill is particularly known for designing and manufacturing precision electromagnets, used in more than 90% of the world’s silicon chips, and developing products used in boron neutron capture therapy, which is expected to revolutionise cancer treatment. He has made a significant impact as a major exporter for the New Zealand technology sector.
Bill’s story is not just one of business acumen but also a testament to pursuing passions with unparalleled dedication. Whether it’s speedway, sailing or motorcycle racing, Bill invests his time, money and expertise with an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Known for his hands-on approach and preferring the shop floor over the boardroom, Bill’s unique character and drive for success has earned him many accolades, including the EY Entrepreneur of the Year in 2011 and the Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit in 2013 for services to technology, business and motorsport.
