We are pleased to announce the following Phase II research project leaders. Their first hui was held in Wellington on 23-24 July, where the team connected, and explored ways they might integrate and co-develop their projects.
Development of the best team for each project is now underway. Note that there will be further opportunities to get involved with our research as projects in the Blue Economy theme are still being developed, and there are some projects that will not start until 2021, so these project leaders and teams will not be identified for some time. Other projects will also be developed through the Innovation and Opportunities Fund.
