Our Story
The Tapin project came out of the R9 Accelerator +3 programme through the work of the two seconded Ministry of Education staff working on the Do it for the kids opportunity.
The team selected to build a social enterprise to take this opportunity forward is Root Systems – a seven member software developer cooperative based in Wellington.
