TUANZ Members
TUANZ is a not-for-profit membership association with over 30 years of positive telecommunications change in our history. We’re comprised of over 170 members, predominantly large organisations with a strong dependency on telecommunications technology as well as small enterprises.
We are also here for the little guy – we serve a representative group of SMEs and individual members. These small businesses and residential users are the customers of our large corporate members, who are just as focused on the quality of their customers’ connectivity as their own.
A history of leading change
Over the past 30 years, TUANZ has lobbied and agitated to achieve positive change on behalf of telecommunications users.
Early on, we were something of a voice in the wilderness, but over time our messages became accepted as mainstream. Regulation and policy that TUANZ has campaigned for and supported have played a big part in the introduction of internationally-orthodox regulation and policy which has paved the way for the more open and competitive environment we now see.
Because of TUANZ’s achievements, telecommunications in New Zealand is now truly competitive. No longer can service providers exploit market dominance. This means prices have come down significantly and service has improved as customers now have far more choice of services. We focus on outcomes, and we achieve them.
