NZIMMR Trustees
The New Zealand Institute of Minerals to Materials Research (NZIMMR) charitable trust is the sole shareholder in NZIMMR Ltd. Its role is to ensure that the company operates within the guidelines set down in the trust deed, those guidelines being part of the investment case presented to MBIE.
In that respect the trust needs to have a balance of trustees who can ensure the key operating principles set out in the trust deed are adhered to, including those relating to the West Coast.
The current trustees are Kevin Stratful, (Chair) West Coast Economic Development, Arihia Bennett, CEO Ngāi Tahu, and Hugh Grey, whose background is in large engineering projects on the West Coast. The trust is pleased to announce the appointment from March 2018 of an additional two trustees: Glenys Perkins, who is Chair of Minerals West Coast and Dr Jane Shearer of Resolutionz Consulting Ltd, who was instrumental in writing the investment case for MBIE.
Together we look forward to seeing NZIMMR Ltd achieve its goal and add value to the NZ minerals and manufacturing sectors, through the identification of value added products which will benefit NZ exports.
