TRANSPORTING NEW ZEALAND 2023 Conference

Transporting New Zealand has announced its annual conference for 2023. Named A Changing World, the conference will be held at Lower Hutt’s Event Centre from June 28th, concluding with an industry awards dinner on the 29th.

The conference is geared to focus on pressing issues facing the transport industry, in conjunction with providing all those within the industry a vital networking opportunity where the work in achieving increased economic productivity since its last annual conference can be recognised and celebrated by all.

Tickets for the conference are now available to purchase.

Issues that will be addressed range from the challenges following severe weather events, climate change, and the resilience of the transport industry and network to technological changes and difficulties in garnering new people into the industry.

As it is an election year, there will also be an opportunity to hear from politicians, including Transport Minister Michael Wood, and transport spokespeople from major political parties.

Keynote speaker Phil O’Reilly, the founder of policy advisory firm Iron Duke, is a New Zealand and global business leader and advocate.

Meanwhile, economist Cameron Bagrie will present a hard-hitting report on the economy and what the industry can expect for the coming year.

More topics will be covered, such as the Green Compact (Transporting New Zealand’s joint initiative to tackle emissions and decarbonisation), the road to success and new trainees, health and safety, fatigue management, and the law.

The conference will conclude with an industry awards dinner on June 29.
