The NSC initiative was developed over 2012–13 by the New
Zealand government's Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) as a restructure of national scientific research funding. Established in advance of the 2014 general election, the Challenges were funded with $ 680.8 million over ten

The first phase of funding from 2013 to 2018 led to eleven
Challenges being established beginning in 2014; the last was launched on 5 May 2016. At the midway review in 2018 the Challenges received their second tranche of funding ($ 320 million) to last from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2024.
