Mission
To advance social progress and economic growth for New Zealand through broadening national understanding of emerging technologies and facilitating early adoption of advanced technology solutions.
CAENZ was founded on ‘for the public good’ principles in 1987, to mark the centenary of the School of Engineering at the University of Canterbury.Since then, CAENZ’s role within New Zealand’s technology landscape has expanded nationally. Moving beyond the advancement of engineering, we have become a key player in the development of New Zealand’s knowledge infrastructure, offering individuals and organisations access to knowledge and technical capability through which ideas can be transformed into fresh solutions and new opportunities. |
