Cawthron visit – 100 years of public good

Overview

This year marks 100 years since the establishment of Cawthron Institute. It was all the making of Nelson philanthropist Thomas Cawthron who had a vision – that science could contribute to the growth of a young New Zealand. 

Since then the Cawthron Institute has grown to become New Zealand’s largest independent science organisation, employing over 300 staff and cementing its position as a leading research institute supporting the growth of primary industries and the protection of marine and freshwater environments. 

The Cawthron Institute is a charity, governed by a trust and a commercial board. We warmly invite you to join us at this event to celebrate the Cawthron’s Centenary, learn more about its winning formula and meet its newly appointed chief executive Volker Kuntzsch.
