NZTech Update – Community connections, research and events
Hi Readers A few years ago, after having three knee surgeries, I discovered the gym. What I love about my gym is how it fosters a strong community, inclusive of everyone’s strengths and abilities.

Hi Readers Taken at face value, language can sometimes be misleading. When my eldest child came home from his first days at intermediate school to announce he was going to study ‘technology’, I admit I was pretty excited. Tell me more, I asked.
