Kea was founded in 2001 to connect and engage our global Kiwi for the benefit of Aotearoa New Zealand. Two decades on, Kea nurtures a vibrant and diverse community who share a strong passion for New Zealand and the success of its people and businesses.New Zealanders are renowned intrepid travellers, taking our unique culture to every nation and network across the globe. In fact, there are nearly as many Kiwi offshore as the population of the South Island. Whatever their global aspirations, Kiwi seek to remain connected to New Zealand, providing a valuable resource of networks and advocacy for our nation. That's where Kea comes in, helping our Kiwi explorers to connect and make a difference. Kea's mission is to enable better understanding of these exploring Kiwi through goodwill and connection for the benefit of New Zealand, and to provide our expats with the information and support they need to thrive. All Kiwi, no matter where they are in the world, are important to New Zealand's success. Join Kea and build a stronger New Zealand with us.
