Society overview

Chairman Richard Orzecki, The Society supports all Māori related projects on the Net. We are especially passionate about the use of the TLD maori.nz. 
The executive komiti held a Hui to discuss the on going focus of the New Zealand Māori internet Society. The venue was 17 Domain Road Otaki. 
We had a good meeting and one outcome is that we have decided to use our contacts at the NZ Maori Business Association and encourage Maori businesses to create a web presence

We were privileged to present awards at the inaugural presentation evening in Otaki. The meeting was well attended by businesses and members of the public as well as 3 sitting members of Parliament.

The president of the Māori Party, Professor Dr Whatarangi Winiata gave the opening speech and Richard Orzecki, Chairman of te Whānau Ipurangi Ō te Au spoke on behalf of the Sponsors.

The  presentation of the Excellence of Service Award was by Col Heke , Secretary of te Whānau Ipurangi Ō te Au, assisted by Erana Wineti one of our executive members to te Rununga Ō Raukawa.
