Trans Tasman Strategic Leaders Summit
As you know, the FSC in New Zealand have been curating and running events for many years. We had been excited to bring you FSC24: Trans Tasman Leaders Summit, with the programme designed to showcase our two sectors and connect the best speakers and topics so we could learn, share and connect.
However, given a number of factors we are writing to share the news that the FSC24: Trans Tasman Strategic Leaders Summit planned for 4-6 March 2024 has been cancelled and will no longer be going ahead.
Despite really good interest from delegates, sponsors and speakers, the cost of living issues in combination with the international travel requirement – for Australians to travel to New Zealand - have proven to be significant obstacles for the event.
Whilst we are disappointed, the content, purpose and focus of the event remain relevant and we will look at other ways to bring these to life and options for the programme.
As we head towards the holidays, we want to thank our sponsors, speakers, Conference Committee and delegates for your support.
Many thanks for your support and understanding.
