Speaker 1: You're listening to a Shearsise podcast. I grew up here. I care a lot about Wellington. I love New Zealand. I love this city. We are not too big, not too small. We're sort of perfectly right sized to be the creative capital of our hero and I think that I have you know, over the last ten years and especially building, you may observed so much incredible talent being born of Wellington. You know, Wellingtonians have gone on to do incredible things on the world stage, and we don't necessarily celebrated enough because we're a very modest breed here.
00:00:32
Speaker 2: I think you've thought so deeply about what Wellington needs and how important creativity is in Wellington, and it's always been the essence of what makes this city really special on a global stage, let alone here in our tierro and how can we re own that creative technology capital that we have?
00:00:51
Speaker 1: So I think it goes back one step right, like how do you make Wellington a place that people want to live, raise their families, build businesses? You know, how do you make it just a fun, beautiful, exciting, vibrant place to be And that probably is a combination of several things in order to have that infrastructure that allows you know, creativety to thrive. So there's probably you know, those links for students who are coming out of their degrees. I remember, I mean I finished my degree. There was not heaps of resource and no super clear ways to get into the industry. It was all like a little bit figure it out and so being able to you know, put some of those frameworks in place, more investment and capital infrastructure around creative industries. We don't you know, often speak about how we punch on the world stage, but we really do. People like Sabine Marcella studied here. We have people like our friend sib Hunt from Entire Studios building an incredible brand over in la which has absolutely gone global. You know, lots of people don't know that these people are from Wellington, and I think we need to really show the kind of value that that creativity can have in the economy and the ecosystem that we live in and build that infrastructure for the next generations to come up and for it to thrive here. There's no secret that Wellington's been through a bit of a rough time. We've had a lot of construction happening, but you know that is starting to wrap up us so that buildings are opening. We have the library, we have the City Gallery, town Hall, you know, rotunda. These things are opening back up and I just hope that it inspires the community to you know, start getting involved in their own initiatives and bringing some of that you know, flavor back to Wellington, which I'm excited about. Investing involves the risk you might lose the money you start with. We recommend talking to a licensed financial advisor. We also recommend reading product disclosure documents before deciding to invest.
