Powering Potential is hosted by Royal Society Te Apārangi in conjunction with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, Freemasons New Zealand and Marsden Fund Te Pūtea Rangahau a Marsden.

This gathering is an opportunity that brings together tauira to collaborate, connect and communicate research solutions for important issues through their lens. Mentored by the Rutherford Discovery Fellows, tauira are given only two days before they have to compile their findings into a presentation.

Nau mai haere mai, come along and listen to what the rangatahi rangatira researchers of tomorrow have to say on the major issues of today!

Following these presentations, please stay for kai and wai, whakawhanaungatanga, meet and greet with the tauira and the Rutherford Discovery Fellow mentors.
