Pūtahi Innovations Limited

Pūtahi is a meeting place between the landscape, peoples or ideas, Pūtahi Innovations is a meeting place between problems and solutions; we are a Social Enterprise that supports other social enterprise start ups that develop purposeful products & services.

Pūtahi Innovations Limited was founded during the PASIFIKA Start-up Weekend in Porirua 2017, to support our own idea, a smartphone app Cheap Kai; an intuitive shopping list app that shows the cheapest priced items and their location, making it easier to plan your weekly grocery shopping, users would become part of a community of like-minded frugal shoppers. Since then we have evolved to support other startups, startup weekends, incubators and business well-being initiatives.

Tikanga are correct use of business protocols,
