Late August, Massey University launched its Strategy 2026-2030, setting a bold course to become Aotearoa New Zealand's most applied and connected university and accelerate our contribution to the prosperity, wellbeing and sustainability of New Zealand.

Launched simultaneously across all three campuses, we were delighted to host the Manawatū launch event at The Refectory. It was a wonderful turnout and a pleasure to welcome our staff and stakeholders for such a significant occasion.
