ShadowTech25 – Save the date

Kia ora,

We’re delighted to announce the return of ShadowTech Day in August 2025. 

Our programme offers girls in years 9-11 an opportunity to discover the world of tech, spark their curiosity and explore career pathways. 

This year, more than 1000 learners from 76 schools nationwide spent the day with a local tech company. We’re showcasing real roles, because we know there’s a tech job to suit everyone. Matched with local tech companies, students gain hands-on experiences to imagine their future career. 

We’re inspiring girls to join Aotearoa’s fastest growing and highest paid sector. Check out ShadowTech24 highlights report here.
