Meet the KUMA Board
KUMA – Te Kupeka Umaka Māori ki Araiteuru – was founded in 2005 by Māori professionals and business people across Otago and Southland. They knew that the historical achievements and future potential of Māori to contribute to whānau, hapū, and iwi could be enriched by creating a network that fostered prosperity by Māori for Māori.
