On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with Game Animal Council Chair Grant Dodson about the Fiordland Wapiti Foundation's submission to have the herd formally designated as a Herd of Special Interest (HOSI) in Fiordland National Park, why it's important for both conservation efforts and economic growth and why Forest & Bird are criticising the move... He talks with NZ National Fieldays Chair Jenni Vernon about her extraordinary and groundbreaking career in agriculture, including becoming the first woman to receive a Nuffield Scholarship, her many and varied governance roles and preparations for this year's Fieldays at Mystery Creek (June 11-14)... He talks with Woolchemy co-founder and CEO Derelee Potroz-Smith about its recent win at the IDEA® 2025 event in Miami, the opportunities it presents for the company in the US$125b industry and how they developed the world’s first hygiene-grade wool capable of replacing petroleum-based plastics in disposable hygiene products... And he catches up with Netspeed Managing Director Stan Rivett about its Moving Day special offer, a recent study by the Commerce Commission which found about half of consumers trying to change mobile phone or broadband providers ran into difficulty switching and how Netspeed is bucking the trend.
