Show Notes

Ben and Peter talk to Spark CEO Jolie Hodson and NZIER principal economist Christina Leung about the recent research into how adopting more advanced digital tech can boost industry output by up to $26 billion, and increase GDP by 2.08% annually.

The pair unpack the report to explain what will it take among Kiwi businesses to realise these gains.

BusinessDesk senior journalist Cécile Meier also joins to answer some questions about her reporting on Hira, the government's embattled project to revamp NZ's IT systems for healthcare.
