- ItemHe whenua tipu(Massey University, 2019-09-12) Sciascia A; Hall T; Roskruge M; Mika JThe incoming Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is causing vast technological innovations, from exponential increases in computing power and data, to closing the gap between physical, digital and biological worlds. These innovations are impacting all people, cultures and economies, and even going so far as to challenge the essence of what it means to be human. He Whenua Tipu – Transforming Māori Agribusiness in the 4IR explored how Māori Agriculture businesses navigate, thrive and survive in this new era. This project is a partnership project between Opepe Farm Trust and Massey University, through which relationships have been established with three other trusts that are associated with Opepe Farm Trust (ā whakapapa, ā whenua hoki) including Tauhara Middle 15, Tauhara Middle Lands and Tauhara Moana Trusts. The project drew on literature and case study data to explore the dimensions of the 4IR and how they are perceived, understood and utilised in various Mäori agribusiness models. From this exploration, we focused on the elements that are altering or are catalysing narratives on business identity, resilience and sustainability for Mäori enterprises in this sector.

- ItemPre-drinking behaviour of people in the night-time economy: Evidence from a street-intercept survey in New Zealand(Wiley, 13/02/2022) Cameron M; Miller P; Roskruge MINTRODUCTION: Pre-drinking behaviour has grown in prevalence and generates harm for pre-drinkers and others. In this article, we answer three research questions: (i) Where and when do pre-drinkers obtain their alcohol?; (ii) What is the difference in the level of intoxication of pre-drinkers versus non-pre-drinkers, and how does this difference vary over the course of a night?; and (iii) Is the level of intoxication of pre-drinkers related to where and when they obtain their alcohol? METHODS: We obtained data from 469 respondents using a street-intercept survey conducted in Hamilton, New Zealand in 2019. Data were analysed by cross-tabulation, linear regression and plotting the average intoxication level in the night-time economy over time. RESULTS: The majority of pre-drinkers purchase their alcohol for pre-drinking on the day of consumption. Half of the same-day purchasers purchase before 6 pm. The average level of intoxication increases over the course of the night, and is unambiguously higher for pre-drinkers than non-pre-drinkers. The level of intoxication does not differ based on the source or timing of pre-drinking purchases. The main motivation for pre-drinking was price, especially among women. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: Pre-drinking is a contributor to intoxication in the night-time economy, but most drinkers purchase their alcohol for pre-drinking before 7 pm. Further research is required to understand whether trading hours restrictions for off-premises alcohol suppliers will affect the most harmful drinking patterns. Price interventions to reduce the price differential between on-licenced and off-licence alcohol outlets offer the greatest potential to reduce pre-drinking and associated harm.
- ItemSide-loading prevalence and intoxication in the night-time economy(Elsevier, 31/12/2021) Cameron M; Miller P; Roskruge MAlthough pre-drinking has attracted considerable research interest, side-loading (any drinking occurring outside of licensed premises during a night out, and excluding drinking at home) is comparatively under-studied. In this paper, we investigate the prevalence of side-loading behaviour and intoxication in the night-time economy of Hamilton, New Zealand's fourth-largest city. Using a street-intercept survey conducted over six nights (n = 469) in March and April 2019, we found that 17.5% of research participants (82/469), and 19.9% of drinkers (82/413), had engaged in side-loading. Of those engaging in side-loading, the majority did so in a car (61.0%), with smaller proportions engaging in side-loading in the street (17.1%), a carpark (12.2%), or somewhere else (13.4%). Men were significantly more likely than women to engage in side-loading behaviour (p = 0.001). In linear models controlling for time of the night, day of the week, and demographic variables, side-loading was not statistically significantly associated with breath alcohol content. This contrasts with pre-drinking, which was associated with statistically significantly higher breath alcohol content. Our results suggest that side-loading might not be used as a method for drinkers to enhance intoxication, but instead as a means of sustaining a target level of intoxication during an evening.
- ItemTe Hononga—Modelling indigenous collaborative enterprise. A research report on Māori enterprise collaboration in Aotearoa New Zealand(Te Au Rangahau, 2021-07-13) Mika J; Cordier J; Roskruge M; Tunui B; O'Hare J; Vunibola SThis study explores the theory and practice of Māori enterprise collaboration. There exists a strong rationale for Māori enterprise collaboration as it builds on the relationality of a Māori world view, shared values and existing whakapapa (genealogical) relationships. Collaboration is considered integral to Māori development because it is set against a background of self-determination and self-governance. Waiū Dairy and MiHI (Movers in Hemp Innovation) are two Māori enterprise collaborations that have been facilitated by Poutama Trust and are at distinctly different stages of maturity. Interviews were conducted with participants from Waiū Dairy and MiHI to gain insights from those involved in the practice of Māori enterprise collaboration.
- ItemThe Productivity and Innovation of Māori Frontier Firms(Productivity Commission, 2021-03-17) Vunibola S; Mika J; Roskruge MTe Au Rangahau (Massey Business School’s Māori business research centre) was invited by the New Zealand Productivity Commission (the Commission) to provide a review of the Commission’s report on its frontier firms inquiry, with a focus on the Māori frontier firms. The inquiry adopts the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) definition of frontier firms – those within the top 10% of firms’ productivity distribution in an industry. This definition brings around 30,000 firms into scope for this inquiry. Identifying Māori firms within this cohort becomes functionally complex. Some of the approaches of identifying Māori firms include business owners’ ethnicity, employees’ ethnicity, the nature of the product and service, or commercial and social enterprises operating with Māori values, philosophy, and tikanga (Statistics New Zealand, 2016). The Commission recognises that there is no single agreed definition of a Māori business or Māori firm as the Māori economy comprises a range of organisational forms and structures under various legal frameworks.
