SUMMARY:Bridging the participation gap of Māori in Aotearoa’s tech sector
DESCRIPTION:The 2023 NZTech Digital Skills Aotearoa Report identified that there is a significant participation gap of Māori in the tech sector\, with Māori accounting for 4.8% of the tech workforce (an increase of 0.8% since 2021). Further research\, Te Au Hangarau: The Wave of Technology examined which factors influence participation and success of Māori in the technology industry. \nJoin our discussion as we reimagine a tech sector where Māori feel a deeper sense of belonging and desire to participate. We’ll take a closer look at the research findings to help inform systemic changes across the tech ecosystem. \nOur discussion will explore the key enablers to foster a sense of belonging\, including enhancing Māori leadership and profile\, creating culturally safe and literate workplaces\, and providing culturally anchored support networks in tech firms. \nPlease register to attend our panel discussion and networking event to discuss the key learnings and opportunities for Aotearoa’s tech sector. \nEvent Deatils: \n\nDate: Thursday 24 August\nTime: 5.00 – 7.30pm\nLocation: Conference Centre\, Spark City\, 167 Victoria Street West\, Auckland CBD\nEvent Type: In person\nCost: Free for members and non-members\n\n\nSpeaker Details: \n\nSpark People & Culture Director Heather Polglase\nAuraki Group co-founder Naomi Manu\n\n\nPanel: \n\nNZTech CEO Graeme Muller (Moderator)\nTe Matarau The Māori Tech Association CEO Lee Timutimu\nSpark Kaupapa Māori Lead Rhonda Koroheke\nTe Pūkenga Academic Centre and Learning Systems Deputy Chief Executive Megan Gibbons\n\n\nSupported by:  \n\n \n\nWe respectfully ask that all participants planning to attend an in person event are healthy and well.
