The Maori Business Forum 2012 19-20 June Auckland
The Maori business community is at a point of transition. The progressive capital injections from Treaty Settlements and the development initiatives from a range of Maori incorporations are converging to create a diverse Maori economy with enormous potential for growth. Over the last 15 years research into Maori economic development has tended to concentrate on obstacles to development and producing best practice guides. These efforts have been valuable and fitting for the period. Now, however, it is timely for Iwi and Maori to increasingly move our focus to soliciting and acting on real world opportunities. One of the most powerful opportunities will surely be in the form of commercial partnering amongst Iwi, Maori and non-Maori organisations. The desirability and potential of commercial partnering has been frequently discussed amongst Iwi and Maori Leaders over the last five years as an increasing number of entities reach a point where the benefits of economies of scale and like-minded partners becomes more tangible. www.liquidlearning.co.nz
