Does the devastating 2011 Earthquake shape the view of Christchurch City?

Vaughn asks, is Christchurch becoming a technology hothouse?
Mayor Lianne Dalziel explains it's been 125 years since woman got the right to vote in New Zealand, and this originally started in Christchurch.
To what extent did the Christchurch Earthquake create an even greater opportunity, in terms of technology?

She also speaks about Driverless vehicles becoming apparent in the near future.
