A paper I presented yesterday at Canterbury University on Community owned and led Enterprise profiling our kaitiakitanga (sustainable development) project at Omaio in the Eastern Bay of Plenty (New Zealand). Presented at the 2014 international Engineers Without Borders Conference. EWB have become valued partners to our project through especially the 2013 Odyssey Design Challenge and continue to play an important strategic partner role to the project.

5. Some findings
• $37 billion is likely conservative
• Is growing fast (but, under the radar)
• Asset productivity is lower than peer non-Maori
• 1.2 million hectares of under-utilized Maori lands
• Science and technology – a key enabler
• There are barriers to Maori business accessing science and
technology

6. Where we are?
Community-owned and led Enterprise 6

7. About us
Ko wai tatou? (who are we?)
• We are a not for profit whanau and
hapu community organization
committed to the principles of
Kaitiakitanga (guardianship and
sustainability) over our lands and
foreshore particularly as this may relate
to development of climate change
responses.
• We pride ourselves on taking a real can-
do approach to everything we do and
towards showing the necessary
leadership to making things happen.
He aha te kaupapa? (what is our
Mission?)
• To raise awareness among our whanau,
hapu and Iwi around the risks and
threats facing our taonga (treasures)
and actively and practically take steps
to safeguard and protect our treasures
for our future generations.
• We will actively seek out, adopt and
utilize the best practices, technologies
and innovations and, strategic
partnerships and alliances available
anywhere in the world towards
achieving our objectives. And especially
those lessons learned by other
indigenous people.

12. Our goals and non-negotiables
Our non-negotiables
• Never put our land at risk; and
• Leadership remains with us
Community-owned and led Enterprise 12
Our goals:
• Cheap power for the whanau through an
energy company owned by the hapu;
• Energy security and a new revenue stream
for the hapu;
• New and real jobs; and
• Model project management approaches

13. Our key drivers
• Rising cost of energy
• Disproportionate impact on Maori households
• Create new community-owned enterprise
• Create new high skilled jobs for whanau
• Owned by marae
• Pilot project towards scale up
• $NZ 500 million market (annual – national)
