TE ARAHI MAIPI, MC, PRESENTER MA-ORI TELEVISION Te Arahi is a kura kaupapa graduate from Huntly who grew up wanting to be a rugby league
star. He quickly realised that wasn’t going to happen, so his dream shifted to being a sports
commentator. For the past ten years he has lived his dream working on some of the biggest
sporting events in the country. He is a presenter for Ma-ori TV and also has his own radio show.
WETINI MITAI-NGATAIWetini Mitai-Ngatai is a leading kapa haka expert and cultural entrepreneur. He is best
known by New Zealand audiences for his appearance in reality TV program, ‘Kapa Haka:
Behind the Faces’ which followed him and kapa haka group, Te Ma-ta-rae I O-rehu, as they
prepared for the 2013 national kapa haka championships.
Wetini was born and raised in Te Arawa. His entrepreneurialism was evident from an early
age, as a young man, Wetini always aspired to work for himself. By the age of 23, he already
owned two fish and chip shops. It was a natural progression for Wetini to bring together his
business acumen with his longstanding passion for kapa haka.
Wetini’s early kapa haka experiences were with Nga-ti Rangiwewehi and Ta-houra-ngi. In
1994 Wetini and Irirangi Tiakiawa Tu-hourangi started the group Te Ma-ta-rae I O-rehu. As the
leader of the group, Wetini has won the male leadership title at five Matatini Festivals, and
Te Ma-ta-rae has qualified for the finals every time they have competed, winning the national
kapa haka title twice.
In 2002 Wetini founded Mitai Maori Village in Rotorua, a Ma-ori cultural performance and
tourism attraction at Fairy Springs (Te Puna o Tu-hoe), Rotorua. Through Mitai, Wetini
wanted to provide employment for family and the wider community. It is now in its tenth
year, and employs more than 100 people including thirteen full-time staff.
Wetini commutes between New Zealand and Dubai, following the success of initiative
‘Snooze Cube,’ in partnership with Larry Swan. The company rents unoccupied areas
in airports and turns them into hireable sound proof snooze rooms for sleep deprived
passengers in transit.

teaching of the Ma-ori language and its protocols. In his personal opinion, Anaha believes
that the Ma-ori language is in serious decline and hopes to contribute to the revival of the
language in order for it to be spoken in a native manner comparable to 60 years prior when
the language was being spoken by the native speakers of that time.
A very proud father to 7 children, Anaha continually strives to be a positive role model for his
family and will continue to gain the knowledge and attributes required that will one day see
him playing a positive and pivotal role amongst his iwi and amongst Maoridom alike.

Henare ahau. Originally from Murupara, I grew up on the eastside of Christchurch in a place
called Aranui. My first job was as a cultural performer for tourists at the age of 15, which I
continued to do from high school through to the end of University. In 2004 I began a journey
with Tourism New Zealand to help infuse a more natural contemporary reflection of Ma-ori
tourism experiences to New Zealand’s tourism marketing proposition. In 2009 I joined the
Auckland Council, then Tourism Auckland which transitioned to Auckland Tourism Events and

opened a secondment in 2016 with Air New Zealand to develop and grow the organisations
relationships with the Ma-ori community (socially, culturally, environmentally,

KAWANA WALLACE Kawana is a computer science engineer and tutor at Te Pae. He built a prototype in
December last year for visitors to access information offline through their phone app.
The next step is to develop an advanced marketable version to be used nationally if the trial
is successful. "I want to create real points of interest in real space.
It hasn't been done in New Zealand."Wallace said the interactive traveller app would allow
people to post points of interests of their journey on social media.
"Its kind of augmenting their experience kind of like a guide but you don't give them that
information online to search, they have to go out and search. "It's more meaningful if you go
out and get it yourself. Investors would be needed to fund the project for Wallace to take it
to a national platform.
