WHAT IS TUKUA?

It is an active community of innovators and entrepreneurs led by Tikanga Maori and Pasifika values.

Tukua is a journey of education and growth that supports and encourages our people to overcome limitations and realize their dreams.

To enhance creativity and innovation in Manukau,
and see our people know and grow in their potential,
Tukua supports creators, innovators, and entrepreneurs to thrive!

Fostering connections, peer support, knowledge sharing, and instilling a growth mindset not only enhances the individual but also their whanau and community.

What is Tukua

TUKUA IS FOR

Have a creative talent, and a desire to make it in this world using what you've got?

Being creative is hard work in Aotearoa, and even harder for those of us with no money, and low financial literacy, behind us.

Tukua is for the creators.

CREATORS

Have a passion and a purpose? A burning cause you are willing to fight for? A dream to see a change? Our world needs innovators, especially our Maori and Pasifika innovators.

Tukua is for the innovators

INNOVATORS

Have a great idea you want to bring to life? Know that you can help your whanau by building a business? Learning to take what you have and turn it into a fully-fledged business isn't easy, easy to mess up, and hard to know where to start.

Tukua is for the entrepreneurs
