Entrepreneurship is considered an agent of growth, wealth creation and development of society. Although New Zealand has experienced a rapid growth of education and research in Science and Technology areas, the country continues to face challenges in engaging communities such as Māori and Pasifika school students. There is a lack of understanding about career pathway choices and opportunities by parents and high school students, especially in these communities (Ministry of Business, 2014) . A significant part of enhancing this understanding is building a relationship between the communities, science and technology industry partners and school students.  \nThis paper presents an initiative taken by the university, government and community partners to create a better understanding of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and entrepreneurship. The programme brought together business, government, researchers, school students, and the wider community within the Auckland region. It demonstrated the application of the triple helix model (Figure 2) to connect the three major players through STEM subjects and entrepreneurship. The programme encourages students to think about themselves as job makers rather than job takers in the future. A range of measures are used to evaluate its success, and initial results arepresented. The format of this study can serve as a guideline for future initiatives aimed to improve students’ awareness of STEM and entrepreneurship careers.  \nKey words  \nSTEM; Entrepreneurship; New Zealand; Triple Helix Model; Māori and Pasifika.  \nIntroduction  \nScience and Technology entrepreneurship plays a vital role in the growth and development of the economy and society. Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) is critical for enhancing living standards through economic growth and improving social and environmental outcomes. This can be possible when the government works closely with communities in designing educational policies and initiatives that can lead to job creation and self-reliance.  \nTo lay a strong foundation for future generations and the 21st century economy, educatorsand decision makers must continue to promote STEM education opportunities. With the shift in demographics to include more diverse populations, we must realise the need to establish a good and supportive system for underrepresented segments of society. They contribute to future growth, so we must recognize the economic impact of not moving in this direction. Many of the western countries have recognised the importance of diverse and underrepresented communities and believe that inclusion through collaborations and considerations of social and cultural aspects is paramount (Figueroa, 2015) . However, there are still gaps that separate underrepresented communities from the mainstream who are able to take advantage of the technology and STEM education and opportunities that exist in areas such as education, employment and health (Alam & Imran, 2015) . Research also shows that barriers such as social esteem, financial status and culture can incite data disjuncture and a failure to adopt and embrace innovation (Lu, Meng, Guo, & Huang, 2013) .  \nNew Zealanders are known for their ‘do it yourself (DIY)’ and can-do attitudes towards problem solving and career planning. Youth need more support and guidance to engage in key areas of STEM subjects now and in the future (Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, 2014), especially Māori and Pasifika (indigenous and minority communities in New Zealand-NZ) .
