Why Join a Māori Business Network?

In the Māori economy, business networks play a crucial role in fostering growth and success. At Whāriki, we view networking as the weaving of whanaungatanga in the business world. Our kaupapa is to create a platform where professional relationships are formed, experiences are shared, and collaboration thrives. By helping businesses enhance their capabilities, expand their reach, and boost profitability, we contribute to the development of the Māori economy, enabling growth and creating employment opportunities for others.
