This week we look into Tātaki Auckland Unlimited's plan to grow the city's tech industry, create high-paying jobs and attract more talent and investment to the region. One year into the three year Tech Tāmaki Makaurau strategy, how are things tracking?
Tātaki's head of tech and innovation Marissa Brindley joins us to explain how the Auckland Council's economic development arm is helping startups make global connections, attract and retain more international talent, and encourage Māori and Pacific Island peoples into the industry.
We also ask: what’s going on with patient portal apps, what does it mean when Microsoft invests big money in a country, and is X’s $1 bot battle too little, too late.
