@ChrisPenknz @RichardMarlesMP This is great. The team from HunterNet in Newcastle are supporting our Taranaki Alliance industry day tomorrow. #Strongertogether #Anzac2035

@dileepa_fonseka @businessdesk_nz Game on now! Guardrails in place, industry can now get down to business. Nice scoop Dileepa.

@AsiaPacificFdn @mnlstandardph Totally agree. In Taranaki, New Zealand, harnessing the regional industrial strengths for food security, energy security and defence security for national security & resilience with global reach is in motion. Would be good to stay on for this event.

[Josh Wineera @JoshWineera]

@BingleyBarrett @AsiaPacificFdn @TCS_SDC Great to see Barrett. We are doing the same here - but add in industry to bridge concept to commercialisation. Others might ideate, in Taranaki we fabricate. Look forward to sharing how that is operating.

@BingleyBarrett @AsiaPacificFdn @AnitaAnandMP @jeff_nankivell This is great. Will continue to follow with much interest and seek shared opportunities.

@NewZealandMFA This is great. Another geo-national too. Super critical.

[Josh Wineera @JoshWineera]

Time to get down to business. EU-NZ Business Summit.

@SecWar Great to see. I wrote about SecWar Hegseth and our Five Eyes relationship eight months ago. Still thinking about my friend and warrior ‘Oods’. @usembassynz

@JudithCollinsMP Love this. One of the bedrock South East Asian partners for NZ. Have deployed, trained and been educated with the SAF @mindefsg “The First and Foremost”.

[Josh Wineera @JoshWineera]

@MarkavisOrg @JudithCollinsMP Fair point. But I’d be more inclined to convince the NZ public that the government has spent proportionally to defend our nation. A bonus if that also impresses allies and partners.

[Josh Wineera @JoshWineera]

Intellectual vandalism. Chris Pugsley does not hold back “lack of interest and understanding shown by the Chief of Defence Force and professional heads of the three services”.

@melaniejoly @IrvingShipbuild Great. Recently wrote about Canadian company updating our Frigates. Lots of opportunities for Canadian companies to partner with local NZ firms to help our own defence uplift valued at $9B CAD. Win-win. @Latentservices

@JudithCollinsMP @NZDefenceForce This is great. Waiouru in winter. Haven’t seen a defence minister so invested in the front line of the NZDF for quite a few years. Troops will appreciate it, as it’s not all about the gilded streets of Wellington and the HQ.
