Saturday Morning - A podcast by RNZ - Fridays

This year many traditionally stable jobs and industries have born the brunt of challenging economic times. According to the World Economic Forum, 69 million jobs will be created in the next four years, driven by new technologies. In Aotearoa, technology is one of our fastest growing exports but, we have a shortage of workers and Maori and Pasifika make up only about 4% and less than 3% respectively. Trying to change that is a bit of a blast from the past. Danny Leaoasavai'i - better known as Brotha D - is a music producer who started making a name for himself in the 90s and who helped found Dawn Raid Entertainment. He's now the Creative Lead at the South Auckland Creative and Tech Hub. Mihi went for a tour with him.
