Furthermore, TUANZ represent customers on a number of panels inclusing the Telco Carriers Forum and the Telco Dispute Resolution Service among others.
Why TUANZ?
New Zealand is on the verge of a great new age of super-connectivity. Very soon, ultrafast broadband will criss-cross the length and breadth of this country bringing ubiquitous connectivity to nearly all Kiwis.
It will enable businesses to improve productivity, and to deal far more efficiently with well-connected customers.
Families, wherever they live, will become far better connected. Smart young Kiwis will be much more attracted to living here rather than overseas. The world’s capitals will be on our electronic doorstep, while we will become earlier adopters of leading-edge services like fibre-powered television on demand.
Yet building the infrastructure is only part of the challenge. We need to use it creatively to transform the way we do business and live our lives.
That’s a challenge not only for the telecommunications industry and the government, but for you – the user. Users will need solid strategies and a strong voice.
That’s where TUANZ excels. They have been instrumental in getting the connectivity to the top of the political agenda. Now TUANZ must prepare our members and the wider community to take full advantage of this vast opportunity. They intend to play a leading role in creating and promoting the vision of a New Zealand transformed by ultra fast connectivity.
