I've spent 20 years of building empowered teams, setting up New Zealand's first Fintech Accelerator and creating digital products and technology platforms for large companies and small start-ups in Aotearoa New Zealand and in the UK before co-founding a principle-based digital consultancy Atamai Digital.
Our belief at Atamai is that Aotearoa New Zealand has the potential to lead the world in creating a hi-tech, sustainable business model that delivers exponentially better long-term benefits for people and the environment than imported models based on tikanga Māori and specifically the principles of Manaakitanga and Kaitiakitanga.
To digitise the Aoteaora New Zealand economy it is critical we make the right decisions for the long-term future of this country, and not blindly follow overseas models that are not sustainable or necessarily appropriate for our country.
