What's it all about?

Brought to you by Media Design School, this interactive panel session is designed to give Maori + Pasifika students a taste of life as a creative tech professional. MDS has brought together an amazing group of industry leaders, mentors, faculty, and students from the Maori + Pasifika communities. They'll be chatting about their tech careers and sharing valuable advice for school leavers looking to embark on a career in tech. 

As the global job-scape becomes more an more uncertain, there's never been a better time to explore the pathways that exist for young Maori and Pasifika students to gain future-proof skills.  Our panellists are experts in a range of future-facing disciplines, from AI, to Game Development, to 3D Animation and more. They'll be sharing first-hand insights and advice about how they reached the points they're at in their respective careers.
