Agenda

Celebration of Private Business

During the afternoon, hosted by dynamic broadcaster and financial advisor, Nadine Higgins, we will canvass various topics through interactive panel discussions.

In the evening, we will hear from keynote speakers, Wayne Smith and Ruahei Demant, members of the World Cup-winning Black Ferns team, about the transformation of a team in turmoil, and what it took to reverse their fortunes to secure “that” brilliant World Cup win.

We will also celebrate New Zealand’s first ever cohort of Best Managed Companies winners, and the very best of our Fast 50 and Master of Growth winners.
