Callaghan Innovation is charged with: • Unlocking the potential of New Zealand’s High Value Manufacturing and Services (HVMS) sector and businesses through increased commercialisation of research, including science, engineering, technology and design (SETD) led innovation, and • Achieving this in ways which strengthen the SETD system’s potential and contribution to meeting businesses’ current and future innovation needs. Callaghan Innovation will do this through increasing the intensity, ambition, capability and benefits – including commercial returns – of engagement between business and SETD providers, and will be held to account for growing commercial outcomes which are directly attributable to leveraging science, technology, engineering and design based innovations. Callaghan Innovation’s performance will be critical to achieving the government’s aims of doubling business expenditure on research and development as a percentage of GDP, and ultimately achieving a step change in the value add and export intensity of New Zealand’s HVMS sector. -

The Healthcare Congress is part of the HealthTech Week, which is run in collaboration with the Consortium for Medical Device Technologies (CMDT). This year's programme features perennial issues and opportunities that our combined industries face; fostering innovation, securing market access and providing value to healthcare stakeholders. In particular, consumers of health services are requiring a more individualised approach to their care whilst at the same time the health system has to determine the longer term future of healthcare balanced with the ability to defi ne and fund the most appropriate models of care for the New Zealand population. Hence, this year’s Congress theme of “Technology Enabled Healthcare” has been chosen to purposely focus all of us on technology-based solutions positioned as a key enabler to support the provision of health services; both now and into the future. This is a timely topic as we’re all aware of the growing trend of collaborations and alliances being developed beyond traditional boundaries to form partnerships in the likes of pharma, biotech, genomics, software and data analytics. -
Whakamaua: Māori Health Action Plan 2020–2025
Whakamaua Māori Health Action Plan 2020–2025 Whakamaua Whakamaua means ‘to secure, to grasp, to take hold of, to wear’. It also widely associated with the whakataukī ‘Ko te pae tawhiti, whāia kia tata. Ko te pae tata, whakamaua kia tīna.’ – ‘Seek out the distant horizons, while cherishing those achievements at hand.’ Its use conveys a sense of acting to take hold of the pae tata, those goals within our reach, as well as working to secure pae ora, healthy futures for Māori – that is the vision of He Korowai Oranga: Māori Health Strategy, which Whakamaua will help give effect to. Whakamaua also alludes to the idea that a korowai is intended to be worn. Whakamaua will bring completion and form to He Korowai Oranga so that all whānau, hapū, iwi and Māori communities can experience health and vitality under its covering.

Small and Medium Enterprise Policy Development in New Zealand 1978 to 2008
From Government to Governance: Small and Medium Enterprise Policy Development in New Zealand 1978 to 2008 A thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management at Massey University Wellington, New Zealand Tanya Ruth Jurado 2016 Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Abstract Widespread recognition of the importance of SMEs and their contribution to the economy means that successive New Zealand governments, between 1978 and 2008, placed increasing emphasis on SME policy. SME policy developed over time from being an incidental outcome of general economic policy to targeting particular SME sectors and engaging stakeholders and SMEs themselves in this process. Few studies have examined how this policy process evolved, and this research addresses the deficit by providing a critical overview of New Zealand SME policy development between 1978 and 2008. It examines how SME policy in New Zealand developed over the thirty-year period, identifying the main influences (or inputs) in SME policy development, and what policy outputs were set in place. The approach draws on business history methods and utilises primary sources, such as archival documentation, media reports, contemporary SME research and interviews with participants who played key roles in the development of SME policy. Historical analysis facilitates the examination of the range and diversity of SME policies used over the period under review. -
