Fantastic turn out in the very loud Hashigo Zake lounge for this coming together of the #WellyTech community to meet, greet, and ponder 3 topics on the podcast, namely:

1: How can a social enterprise grow beyond it's initial idea?
2: Using AI is merely sending money overseas to the big vendors.
3: Consultancy is dead.

See you at the next #WellyTech get together: https://accessgranted.nz/coming-soon/recording-system-error | RECORDING: System Error - Spring Is Sprung (Thursday, September 26, 2019, Hashigo Zake)

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 ...

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)

Tweet from Jessica Manins, @JessicaManins - Aug 19
"When Sir Richard Taylor plays your game @beyonddotfun and says it’s the most fun he’s had in #VR it’s 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)!

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 whānau sick.

We built Manawa specifically for whānau, 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.

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.
