Tāiki e! Impact House

What Taiki e! Impact House is

A community space in Gisborne, in the Tairawhiti region of New Zealand, for people working on social and environmental change. It runs events, hosts co-creation projects and supports the incubation of impact-focused ventures.

Beyond the physical space, its role is connection: linking entrepreneurs, young people and local partners into a working network.

What you can do with it

• Attend social innovation events in the region
• Join or start community co-creation projects
• Get incubation support for an impact venture
• Meet partners and collaborators locally
• Bring education, environment or youth-focused work into a real community setting

Who it is for

• Social enterprise founders in or near Tairawhiti
• Youth interested in impact entrepreneurship
• Local organisations seeking collaboration
• Visitors researching community-based innovation models

What to watch out for

• It is a place and a network, not software; this listing exists for completeness
• Programs and opening arrangements change, so check current details before visiting
• Impact claims of any local organisation deserve direct conversation rather than website assumption
