Manawatū 2025; New Zealand’s most progressive region
Our vision is bold and purposefully so, it encompasses the ambitions of both our shareholder Councils. It requires our region to move from comfortable to ambitious, from reactive to future focused, and to move with an increased cadence and sense of resolve. We believe that Manawatū has the leadership and the ingredients to reposition itself on the national stage – a vibrant and innovative region that will be first choice for talent, business and investment.
