OUR CONTINUING PURPOSE

We know that TUANZ continues to have a significant role to play in informing, educating and leading the debate on digital communications technology and its implications for NZ businesses.

Our vision, which is the outworking of of our purpose, is a readily measurable target for us to aim for in all our work.  It reflects our focus on businesses and their use of technologies rather than the technology themselves. OUR 5 YEAR VISION IS THAT BY 2020 NZ WILL BE IN THE TOP 10 COUNTRIES FOR BUSINESS USAGE ACCORDING TO THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM GLOBAL NETWORK READINESS INDEX.
