Beehive to Business with Rt Hon Chris Hipkins
About this Event

In an election year, the big decisions are on the table. Hearing directly from political leaders helps businesses understand the signals, spot emerging shifts, and prepare for the road ahead.

We’re excited to announce the second speaker in our Business to Beehive Leaders Series: Rt Hon Chris Hipkins, Leader of the Opposition.

Ahead of the upcoming election, this series brings party leaders to our members for candid conversations about their priorities, perspectives and policy direction.

Join us on 28 April where Rt Hon Hipkins will discuss the broader themes shaping his party’s approach to New Zealand’s future and the issues they see as most important for the country and the business community.

• The party’s overall priorities heading into the election
• Key themes influencing their policy approach
• How they see opportunities and challenges for New Zealand businesses
• Their perspective on what a supportive environment for employers and industry could look like

This is the second event in a series of high value discussions designed to give our members direct access to political leaders and a deeper understanding of the landscape ahead.

Join us for an engaging and informative discussion to help you prepare for the months leading up to election day.

Agenda:

  • 7:15am- Standing breakfast, networking
  • 7:45am- Address
  • 8:10am- Q&A
  • 8:30am- Event concludes

Part of the ongoing Beehive to Business series, this event is proudly made possible through our partnership with Wellington-based consulting firm Allen + Clarke.
