Celebrating the work of others in our sector is good for all of us. It’s an act of good citizenship that recognises both our individual and shared work in building a smart ecosystem. Ecosystem citizenship behaviour encourages collaborative approaches, collective action for the sector and indirect social exchanges (such as the behaviour of paying it forward and supporting the development of others in the community). We’ve had some opportunities to recognise the good works of others in the last month and look forward to further opportunities.

Digital assets are increasingly important in modern society. They are used for an expanding variety of purposes — including as valuable things in themselves, as a means of payment, or to represent or be linked to other things or rights — and in growing volumes. Electronic signatures, cryptography, smart contracts, distributed ledgers and associated technology have broadened the ways in which digital assets can be created, accessed, used and transferred. Such technological development is set only to continue.

This week I’m looking forward to attending the 2022 Hi-Tech Awards in Wellington on Friday night. At last year’s awards, it was a special time for NZTech, being awarded for the best contribution to the New Zealand tech sector. The black-tie gala dinner is always a highlight of the year, celebrating the amazing people and companies of the tech sector. A special call-out to many of our members who are Hi-Tech Award finalists.
