Register here for Veracity Technology Spearhead and Catalyst Cloud's symposium on our approach to National Data Infrastructure for Aotearoa New Zealand.

Following the publication of the National Data Infrastructure blueprint we will be hosting a symposium to promote engagement and identify next steps, both further research and sector-specific implementation plans.

We hope this symposium will promote engagement with the NDI for Aotearoa New Zealand, identify possible consortium research partners & explore how the NDI could apply to industry.
