Networks are groups of people who come together to share ideas, experiences, support, and advice around different kaupapa. Business networks provide a connection point for like-minded individuals that are on a journey of business development to build an ecosystem of support and opportunity.

We believe locally driven business networks are key to ensuring our Māori businesses are thriving. If you live in Ōpōtiki, Whakatāne, Rotorua, Kawerau, Taupō or somewhere here in the Bay of Plenty and would like to see the mobilisation of a Māori Business Network near you – let’s kōrero.

A big part of our mahi is to support our communities establish their own Māori business networks. We can tautoko through strategic planning, online enablement, and event resourcing. If this is something you have been thinking would really benefit your business community contact us!

If you are looking to join a Māori business network, check out the Tauranga Māori Business Association. Or if you are based in Rotorua join the Pakihi Ora Māori Business Facebook Group.
