We were honoured to welcome Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, Minister of Finance, and Economic Growth, Nicola Willis MP and CEO of MBIE Carolyn Tremain to our Wellington office today to discuss the role of AI in enabling growth and shaping the economic future of Aotearoa New Zealand. Datacom CEO Greg Davidson was joined by NZ Managing Director Justin Gray, and AI Director Lou Compagnone to share real-world examples of how we're leveraging AI to drive growth and productivity for our customers. We are at a defining moment for New Zealand's economic future. One of our core values at Datacom is to look beyond today to create an exciting tomorrow. We are proud to be harnessing emerging technologies and helping unlock new possibilities for New Zealand.

Our Managing Director for Managed Operations, Stacey Tomasoni, talks about picking the right tools and solutions when there are so many existing and emerging technologies to choose from - and why it starts with a focus on employee and customer experience. With experience coming in as a top priority for business leaders in 2025 in our business outlook research, the focus on growth and productivity that underpins this reflects resilience amongst businesses after a challenging few years as they look to the future and set the stage for long-term success.

It's good for our customers, it's good for our industries," says Justin.
