    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Ōtepoti students have undoubtedly had their fair share of flatting horror stories. However, Otago graduate Ryan Cole is here to help lessen that with Flatchat. Boasting “honest flat reviews from real NZ tenants”, this platform is designed to increase visibility around the Aotearoa rental market, and “bring some of the power away from the landlords and back to the tenants”.

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Following controversy earlier this year around the University of Otago’s proposed partnership with Israeli-government linked Palo Alto Networks, Vice-Chancellor Grant Robertson announced a review of the partnership agreement. This has now been completed, concluding that there is “no substantive evidence” that suggests that the University of Otago should end its relationship with Palo Alto Networks (PANW).
