Kami: Kiwi online learning company's Covid boom

From Nine To Noon, 11:29 am on 10 March 2021

New Zealand children - particularly those in Auckland - will be extremely familiar by now with online learning, thanks to Covid.

But their experience is well short of what other kids around the world have had to cope with. One New Zealand company has been helping to support them - finding particular success with teachers in the United States. 

Kami, formerly known as Notable PDF, has 24 million users worldwide, making it one of the top online learning tools.

Its founders include husband and wife team Hengjie Wang and Alliv Samson, who join Kathryn to talk about why the pandemic-induced change to learning might be permanent.
