Looking to the Future: The future of Māori economic development and enterprise in Taranaki
About this event
Māori enterprise has the power to ignite local economies in an inclusive and sustainable way; Māori or non-Māori, there is much to be learnt from the application of a Te Ao Māori approach to business, now more than ever.
How can we support Māori enterprise as a region, and what value can we expect to see as a result?
Join us for our Taranaki 2050 in Conversation event 'The future of M`āori economic development and enterprise in Taranaki'.
With the Māori economy in New Zealand growing steadily by over 5% per annum, the future for entrepreneurial Māori in our region is an exciting one. But, what do we actually mean by Māori enterprise? What is Māori entrepreneurship and innovation, and how is this different to non-Māori constructs of enterprise and entrepreneurship? How can we, and why should we, support Māori enterprise as a region? These questions and more will be investigated.
