Inside One NZ: AI Innovations, Starlink Connectivity, and the Future of Telco with Kieran Byrne

Host Paul Spain is joined by Kieran Byrne, the Chief Technology Officer at One NZ. Listen in as they explore the rise of autonomous vehicles, AI-powered telco networks, and the game-changing impact of Starlink’s satellite connectivity for Kiwis. Kieran reveals how AI is transforming One NZ’s customer service, infrastructure, and the exciting rollout of Starlink’s direct-to-satellite mobile services – a game-changer for rural and remote connectivity – and what to expect as 3G is phased out and 5G coverage continues to grow. Kieran offers a candid look at the challenges and opportunities in modernising legacy infrastructure, plus thoughts on how AI could transform government and the wider tech ecosystem in New Zealand.
