BRIGHT THINK
Ko te pae tawhiti whaia kia tata, ko te pae tata whakamaua kia tina - Seek the distant horizons, and when you arrive , sustain and maintain them
While small, our impact and success comes from our clear vision and commitment to work hard and smart for our clients and partners. Our combined experience in research, innovation, technology, design (UI/UX, systems, spatial, graphic), business strategy, governance, legal, ethics and regulatory systems, positions us well to engage early and lead on complex projects or work programmes.
We've worked across private, public and not-for-profit sectors so we understand your drivers and constraints, whether that is shareholder value, KPIs and budgets, monitoring or reporting. We get on the same page early by establishing deliverables and where needed, governance.
For larger, complex or fast-track projects, we leverage our networks, bringing together smart minds to design and deploy bold and impactful solutions. We are well connected to individuals and organisations in research communities and deep tech, industry / sector bodies, as well as community driven and indigenous-led organisations.

What we do
We design, plan and execute solutions that deliver on collective aspirations and needs.
Our sweet spot is the built and natural environment, where we stand at the intersection of indigenous knowledge and rules-based expert systems that can transform our futures.
Our drive and expertise in technological futures is the potential for equitable outcomes when designed intentionally and deployed with care - because change isn't easy but it's worth it.
Who we are
We are a Maori-led advanced technologies thought- studio determined to create brighter futures for generations to come.
Purpose driven values shape our Kaupapa - Intergenerational systems thinking - Ethical behaviour and Equitable outcomes.
Why work with us
Our business model and our vision allows us to be, in start-up language,
"lean and agile".
That means:
-
we don't have an organisational structure that slows us down.
-
we are expansive in our thinking and can pivot or adapt easily
-
costs to engage us won't blow your budget, because we highly value time and use efficiency tools where appropriate.
-
we understand first-hand that a resource heavy design or planning stage depletes resources from production and go-to-market strategies.
Our Team
We know too well the challenges that exist today. The Wellbeing of people, whenua, and future generations is our bottom line - the measure we use to design, prioritise, and deliver everything we do
