It all started in a circle with family — and Nukava's story runs from that bowl in Indiana to a laboratory in Nukuʻalofa.
An idea carried for eight years by three founders — Fine Taufatofua, Hayden Braddock, and Politoni Kioa — who found their way to the same conviction from different corners of the Pacific. One conversation led to another, until it was time to act.
