About Us
Kia ora and welcome to Pāua Interface.
Nestled in the heart of New Zealand's technology and innovation landscape, Pāua Interface is more than just a technology company.
We are a team of fixers and doers, creators, thinkers, and avid problem-solvers – dedicated to creating a future where technology and values go hand in hand.
Our mission is to craft technology solutions for our clients that are both deeply embedded with the essence of Aotearoa, and based on coalface experiences from years of working alongside organisations, people and communities from all walks of life.
Our journey
Founded in 2002, our journey began with a simple vision to integrate the unique qualities of Aotearoa into the digital world.
The pāua shell, a large abalone, is unique to the southern Pacific ocean and a common artefact found in almost every home in Aotearoa (they make great mini-bowls). It is well-known for its iridescent colours and so is perfectly emblematic of our approach to people, communities, our planet, solutions, and innovation.
What we do
Pāua Interface specialises in data and digital solutions that cater to a wide range of industries including government, health, education, environment, security, energy, science, telecommunications, enterprise and entrepreneurship, community, Māori and Iwi.
We specialise in IT, data and digital advisory services, strategies, projects, industry state of the sector reports, and stakeholder engagement.
We tailor solutions to meet the unique needs and aspirations of our clients.
