Taniwha Den And Kohinga Koha

In late October, Josh pitched at the Taniwha Den as part of the Kohinga Koha Māori Economic Summit in Tauranga. With the support from Amy Stewart, Business Strategist, they showcased the vision of JNP Aviation, JNP Aviation Training and JNP Kārearea Drones to the jury.

As part of this, JNP Aviation and JNP Kārearea Drones were presented with the ‘Greatest Community Impact’ award by Te Arikinui Kuini Nga wai hono i te po - a great honour and acknowledgement for the core mission of all three companies: to create clear career pathways for rangatahi into aviation through building industry awareness and providing meaningful employment opportunities.

With JNP Kārearea Drones, we aim to partner with iwi to connect their rangatahi to opportunities within the drone industry.
