Maru Nihoniho (Ngāti Porou, Whānau ā Apanui, Ngāi Tahu) harnesses the power of gaming for education and mental health. She is behind Metia Interactive, an award-winning game development studio in Tāmaki Makaurau with the tagline “making serious fun”.

Maru Nihoniho’s focus is on creating meaningful entertaining games incorporating Māori themes including te reo. “The goal is to encourage rangatahi into technology-based study at tertiary level. “They are growing up using these technologies and they should understand or know how to make content for them in the least. At best, they will be the future content creators and technologists.”
