Massey University

Massey University is a comprehensive public research institution with campuses in Auckland, Manawatū (Palmerston North) and Wellington, with a strong applied, industry‑facing orientation. On the Manawatū campus, open‑access pilot‑scale facilities and co‑located national research partners form an agrifood innovation precinct that links corporate R&D to expertise and equipment. University‑owned research farms and a veterinary teaching hospital enable testing from field trials to clinical care, while open‑access facilities provide analytical and prototyping support. Commercialization is delivered through Massey Ventures, which manages IP, licensing and startups. Research is backed by competitive national funding, including the MBIE Endeavour Fund and the Health Research Council, alongside industry partnerships.
