The Business of Tech

What's in store for Aotearoa, with Kiwi futurist Ben Reid


Listen Later

In Episode 9 of The Business of Tech we quickly dip into the 2023 NZ Hi Tech Awards.

Then, we catch up with Ben Reid, Aotearoa's leading futurist, the creator of the influential Memia weekly newsletter, NZTE Beachheads advisor, and business consultant.

What do Kiwi businesses need to know about the generative AI revolution? Can robotics help transform our manufacturing sector, and is there still life in the metaverse?

Tune in to hear Ben's take on all of this and insight on how we, in the words of Sir Paul Callaghan, "get off the grass" and build a low-carbon weightless economy.
