Kanapu Exchange has been designed to connect emerging Māori researchers and graduates with industry specialists, organisations, and hands-on experiences that shape our research, science, innovation, and technology sector. These exchanges hope to create lasting impact through nurturing Māori talent and leadership whilst enriching the sector with Māori knowledge and perspectives. It is about more than career development; it is about weaving together people, knowledge, and opportunity.
