To help, we want to show the paths available to pursue a career in creative tech. With different guest speakers hosted over 5 weeks, they will chat about how they made the journey and offer you guidance on how you can follow in their footsteps.

By breaking down barriers, we hope to make the path clearer in both direction and achievability, and help our rangitahi realise their dreams, and help them figure out the first steps to get there.
