What were you doing with your spare time at 15-years-old?
While most Kiwi teenagers will spend their summer holidays relaxing a team of young Hawke's Bay entrepreneurs is developing a new company.
Verel is an app company, founded in September 2015 by Napier Boys' High School students Lewis O'Donnell, 15, and Reed Pearce, 16.
Together with two other silent business partners the team has designed a virtual reality style app which acts as a platform to allow users to watch and share a range of 360 degree videos.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
