Join us for our 2025 post-budget breakfast, with Finance Minister Hon Nicola Willis.
Join us on 5 June 2025 for a post-budget briefing from Minister of Finance, Hon Nicola Willis. As one of the first public appearances for the Minister following the delivery of the 2025 Budget, you will hear first-hand how the Government's fiscal decisions will impact family businesses leaders and the New Zealand economy.
This event is a great opportunity to gain an insider perspective on the headline outcomes of Budget 2025 that will be released on the 22 May 2025 and how it impacts business, and with plenty of time allowed for Q&A and networking over breakfast, this event is also a great opportunity to host your team or clients.
Light standing breakfast will be provided.
