ABOUT
We are Hemisphere. With an eye for compelling stories, our fun comes from bringing innovative solutions to creative challenges. We keep it simple. Crunching the numbers, crafting the idea, and shaping the narrative that launches you beyond the status quo.

OUR TIRITI-DYNAMIC PARTNERSHIP

Big River Creative is our Tiriti-dynamic partner. Not contracted in for the cultural bits — a rangapū (partnership) built to last, sharing one office and one team in Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Te Awanui Reeder, who founded Big River Creative, sits alongside Tim as our Pae Ārahi.

We don't talk about Tiriti-dynamic practice. We live it, between two agencies, then bring it to your mahi. He awa whiria (the braided river): mātauranga Māori and Western evidence, flowing as equals. Convergence, not hierarchy.

One team. One relationship. Culturally grounded work that connects with Māori communities — and a method that's peer-reviewed, not just claimed.

CLIMATE POSITIVE

Hemisphere is a climate positive business. We cut the emissions we can, and work with Ekos on the ones we can't yet. Those we offset through indigenous carbon forest projects — plus a further 20%, so our impact is climate positive, not just neutral. The offsets grow and protect forests across Aotearoa and the Pacific. They build climate resilience, protect waterways, control erosion, support biodiversity, and back local communities.

OUR WIDER NETWORK

Our network is our strength. Through partnerships built on trust, time and reciprocity, we bring deep expertise across Māori, Pasifika, Asian and other communities — cultural advisors, video producers, community engagement specialists, researchers, designers and developers. It's he awa whiria at network scale — community and lived knowledge flowing alongside what we know, as equals. Responsive delivery, at the highest standard.
