Event overview

Join us at the Local Government Focus Day in Auckland, where local leaders will come together for a day of collaboration, innovation, and strategic insight. This event tackles the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing local councils today.

Councils must navigate complex regulations while ensuring sustainable asset management to support long-term infrastructure resilience. Financial sustainability will also take centre stage, with new funding mechanisms offering fresh opportunities to optimise resources and drive community growth.

Discussions will explore the digital transformation of government services, customer experience, and service innovation—key pillars of modern governance. As communities demand seamless and efficient interactions, councils must continue to embrace digitisation and technology-driven solutions to enhance service delivery.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with peers, gain valuable insights, and participate in thought-provoking sessions designed to inspire action and deliver tangible results. Together, let’s shape a resilient and prosperous future for Aotearoa’s communities.
