A discussion with Sarah Bickerton* about how we seem to focus on the commercial world led us to having a cracking chat with Dr Karl Löfgren who is Associate Professor at the Victoria University (of Wellington!) School of Government. We asked about the speed of change within government, the hurdles to government adopting new technology, and why it seems that many give the New Zealand government (small 'g') such a hard time. This was a conversation we, especially Mike, could've continued well into the small hours. - https://www.wgtn.ac.nz/sog/about/staff/karl-lofgren - https://nz.linkedin.com/in/karl-lofgren-5741a639 * Sarah was a guest on the podcast back in October 2018 https://accessgranted.nz/episodes/2018/10/4/sarah-bickerton-kindred-spirits ------------------------------------------------------ Behind the scenes of tech, media, and startups, hosted by Mike Riversdale, Raj Khushal, Vivian Chandra, and others - https://accessgranted.nz/
Shiffy Nayar is leaving a legacy and sheâs not afraid if youâd like to do the same. Chatting with Shiffy we discover her More Than Rubies initiative that has awoken from itâs slumber - get involved: "... a movement for young women empowering them to make healthy and informed decisions by equipping them with the practical skills they need to achieve their dreams." During her day job Shiffy is a senior manager at Tensing focusing her talents upon the crazy and wild world of "transformation" be that companies, teams, or people.

In the penultimate Viv hosted podcast she gets to go and talk with Gavin de Steur at Uneeq, well in fact she gets to talk to Gavin AND an online virtual human. Gavin, originally from South Africa, is interested in bringing back the emotional human-to-human connection and with UneeQ (formerly Faceme), started here in NZ, he has that opportunity. Uneeq has recently expanded out to Asia, Australia, Europe, and the USA which bring with it a challenging growth path because of the many different communication styles. - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gavin-de-steur/ - https://digitalhumans.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ Behind the scenes of tech, media, and startups, hosted by Mike Riversdale, Raj Khushal, Vivian Chandra, and others.

As part of our 5th birthday Owen Evans turned the tables on Mike, Raj, and Viv and interviewed us. Of course with AG now closing down at the end of 2019 the sense of optimism about the future can been seen as unfounded. We would still like to have this published - a moment in time.

Meeting at the 2019 TechFugeesNZ hackathon Mike recognised two very clever, passionate, and dedicated wahine in Charlie and Samar ... and they got on like a house on fire. Samar is currently an Azure Digital Transformation Specialist at Microsoft but really she would say that she is all about, "Empowering organisations to digitally transform their business with Microsoft Azure". Charlie is the Product Manager of Search at Trade Me and Advisor Member of InternetNZ's .NZ Policy Panel. Both Charlie and Samar would say they are way more than titles and you need to listen to get to know the real them in this episode that ranges from "What even is tech?", through to, "How to support those that work in tech" Samar and Charlie have complimentary, but not always agreeing views, on how the New Zealand tech industry can "be better".

Last week the world went on strike to protest the inaction from the power structures of society with regard to the current climate emergency and today New Zealand is showing their determination to be heard. So what can we, a podcast do? We have an audience, and so we are publishing the audio of Greta Thunbergâs emotional and, to some, confrontational speech at last Fridayâs UN Climate Summit with the hope that it will inspire each and every one us into more direct and noticeable action. Good luck to all those who participate in the nation-wide strikes, and hereâs to all of us, together making the world a place we want to live in. SIGN: https://our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/climate-declaration-from-the-youth-of-aotearoa-2 SUPPORT: https://www.schoolstrike4climatenz.com READ: https://thespinoff.co.nz/tag/climate-strike/ RESEARCH: https://www.google.com/search?q=nz+climate+strike Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg chastised world leaders Monday, Sep. 23, for failing younger generations by not taking sufficient steps to stop climate change. "You have stolen my childhood and my dreams with your empty words," Thunberg said at the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York. "You're failing us, but young people are starting to understand your betrayal. The eyes of all future generations are upon you. And if you choose to fail us, I say we will never forgive you," she added. Thunberg traveled to the U.S. by sailboat last month so she could appear at the summit. She and other youth activists led international climate strikes on Friday in an attempt to garner awareness ahead of the UN's meeting of political and business leaders. ------------------------------------------------------ Behind the scenes of tech, media, and startups, hosted by Mike Riversdale, Raj Khushal, Vivian Chandra, and others.

Big updates from Hiria Te Rangi, Kaiwhakahaere at Whare Hauora. Hiria has had her first formal board meeting with her Directors: Amber Craig, Jay Daly, Dianne Minee - always good to communicate where the organisation is and where it should be heading. And then Hiria has been out and about speaking "The Power Of A Grandmother" TEDxWellington: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHq1waE-qIY Hiria also spoke at JAFAC conference, "How Whare Hauora product development is driving the decolonisation of data collection and management." Why, "why" matters. In a World where everyone is connected, we assume that our personal data is being collected, managed and on-sold. It has become naturalised, that this is the fee we must pay in order to use the service. But what if it wasn't? We learn that the sensor hardware is changing in the future to include little LED screens making a massive UX difference. And finally Raj and Hiria discuss how funding for a "non-traditional tech/data" company is very tough, but Hiria is a tough wahine! Get amongst it on the Whare Hauora PledgeMe campaign: https://www.pledgeme.co.nz/projects/6226-manawa-smart-home-sensor-kit-for-community-organisations Listen to her latest story, it's gold and we're sure those of you with startups can totally related ... ------------------------------------------------------ The Whare Hauora update is brought to you by Hiria Te Rangi and Access Granted NZ.

Kylie Reiri is one of those treasurers of New Zealand, a values focused wahine leading a data scientists focused company working on the issues that matter to all of us. Once you've heard Kylie explain where she comes from, how she wants data to make a difference through actual supporting better decisions, for instance services provided by central government, then we would highly recommend her talk given earlier in 2019 at Hack Aotearoa (link below) - https://nz.linkedin.com/in/kyliereiri - https://twitter.com/kylie_reiri - https://www.curiousminds.nz/profiles/kylie-reiri/ - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sB6Ww9-WMGw ------------------------------------------------------ Behind the scenes of tech, media, and startups, hosted by Mike Riversdale, Raj Khushal, Vivian Chandra, and others.

Tweet from Jessica Manins, @JessicaManins - Aug 19 "When Sir Richard Taylor plays your game @beyonddotfun and says itâs the most fun heâs had in #VR itâs hard not to feel like this #oddball #comingsoon #VR" There's no better introduction to Jessica Mannins' new venture, Beyond, than that - and having played / experienced it both Mike and Raj agree it is the best social VR fun ever. Listen to Jessica's plans for her co-founded company, where it all came from, why VR has tickled Jessica for so long, and most of all how you too could have the best VR time of your life ... with a VR fart gun (if you're quick enough)! - https://nz.linkedin.com/in/jessicamanins - https://twitter.com/JessicaManins - https://www.beyond.fun/ ------------------------------------------------------ Behind the scenes of tech, media, and startups, hosted by Mike Riversdale, Raj Khushal, Vivian Chandra, and others.

Hiria is here! More on her journey, speaking at TEDxWelligton and the Zero Carbon Challenge PledgeMe campaign: https://www.pledgeme.co.nz/projects/6226-manawa-smart-home-sensor-kit-for-community-organisations --- Whare Hauora has created Manawa: a smart home sensor kit and platform that measures the temperature and humidity of rooms in homes and tells you if your home is making your whÄnau sick. We built Manawa specifically for whÄnau, so they gain insights into their health and wellbeing, via notifications and a dashboard. Our Vision is an Aotearoa where your home doesn't make you sick. But for a lot of families, knowing that your home is making you sick and having the resources to upgrade your home or access health services or even purchasing a Manawa kit are near on impossible. So Whare Hauora is running a Pledgeme campaign specifically for Community organisations that help families with housing upgrades like insulation installations or health services like respiratory illness prevention. ------------------------------------------------------ The Whare Hauora update is brought to you by Hiria Te Rangi and Access Granted NZ.

Rowan Simpson provides an episode that replicates his professional life, one of two halves. From being the first non-family member employee of TradeMe before moving on to Xero in it's early years. Since then Rowan has taken his experience and insights to many companies as investor and director, spreading the product development messages, and sharing his approach to tech business with all that are keen to hear (check out his Hoku Ideas page linked below). Why is this show akin to his professional life - it's in two parts. First part recorded at an increasingly loud and busy Roxy Cinema before we decamped to overlook the Wellington harbour and record within a much quieter place - stick with it, it's gold - especially the second half. It's an honour to have Rowan on the show, he's been a shining light within the New Zealand tech industry for many years and with his new venture, OneMetric.io we see him not only filling a "startup hole" but also guiding and passing on his knowledge one more time. - https://hoku.nz/team/rowan/ - https://uk.linkedin.com/in/rowansimpson - https://hoku.nz/ideas/ - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kD5TjNfJiJM - https://www.onemetric.io/ ------------------------------------------------------ Behind the scenes of tech, media, and startups, hosted by Mike Riversdale, Raj Khushal, Vivian Chandra, and others.
