🌈⚡ What an incredible evening at Vector! We were proud to host Rainbow Auckland's March event last Wednesday, and what a fantastic turnout it was. The spotlight was on AI and its positive applications, presented by the amazing Noor Syed. From reducing mundane workloads to simplifying complexity, it’s clear that AI has the power to enhance the way we work and live. A key takeaway? AI must be developed ethically, but it’s also up to each of us to advocate for responsible use. Thanks to everyone who joined us and all those that helped with the organisation—it was a night of great insights, meaningful conversations, and connection. Looking forward to the next one! 💡✨ #AI #EthicalAI #RainbowAuckland #Vector #VectorFibre

‘Progress doesn’t happen by waiting, it happens through deliberate action’ The conversation from last week’s panel event for International Women’s Day made this point very clear. The inspiring discussion brought women from across Vector together, to share their experiences and perspectives on empowerment. We covered being proactive in taking opportunities and not waiting for someone to give you ‘a seat at the table’; being bold and making your voice heard; and recognising there’s no fixed box that you need to fit into in order to be a great leader. ▶️ We’ve come a long way, but there’s still a lot more to be done. 👏 Big thanks to the amazing panel for sharing your experiences; Angelika Vopel Amanda Roscoe, Shona Irving, Harriet Blackburn and Karen Ip. And to our fantastic host, Penelope Goertzen, a graduate in Vector Technology Solutions Ltd. #IWD #InternationalWomensDay #AccelerateAction

🌈 Happy Pride, New Zealand! 🌈 As we celebrate the vibrant and diverse rainbow community, it’s also important to take a moment to reflect on our mental health. At Vector, we're committed to fostering a supportive environment, and as part of our celebrations, we’re thrilled to have hosted a talk from Tommy Hamilton, owner and counsellor at TKH Therapy. Tommy, a narrative therapist, educator, artist, and mentor, works alongside multiple rainbow communities and allies across Aotearoa. He shared valuable insights on mental health and wellbeing from a rainbow perspective: ✨ Rainbow allyship in the workplace ✨ Mental health tips and techniques for relaxation and resilience ✨ Rainbow support as a parent/caregiver for youth ✨ Transgender wellbeing and support in the workplace These topics, though talked about through a rainbow lens, are universal in promoting inclusivity and support for everyone. Let’s keep the conversation going, not just during Pride but every day! 🌈💙 #Pride #AucklandPride #pride #inclusion #diversity #lgbt+ #rainbowpride

📈 The energy sector is a critical enabler of business and growth, and ensuring that there is a secure, sustainable and affordable supply is vital to drive New Zealand’s economic growth. We fed in to Simon Bridges’ Energy Action Plan, ‘Unlocking the energy sector to unlock energy growth’ at a critical time for the sector. This practical and realistic plan documents 10 important energy policy actions to ensure New Zealand fulfils its economic potential as a country. The plan was developed by the Auckland Business Chamber and the Northern Infrastructure Forum, and builds on the collective input of around 60 energy sector leaders. ➡️ Read more about the Energy Action Plan: https://lnkd.in/gx3D7ss3 #EnergyActionPlan #EconomicGrowth #BusinessGrowth
