    The Conferences & Membership Symposium is an opportunity for association leaders and professionals to explore two vital areas for sustaining and growing strong associations: membership engagement and effective conference planning.

    The morning session will be dedicated to membership engagement, diving into strategies that foster stronger connections within your community. Participants will explore practical approaches to building vibrant, member-focused communities and hear case studies that highlight successful engagement tactics.

    In the afternoon, the focus will shift to conferencing, where attendees will gain insights into creating impactful events that resonate with members and provide lasting value. Through real-world examples and discussions, participants will learn how to design and execute conferences that not only meet organisational goals but also strengthen the overall member experience.

    This symposium offers an opportunity to learn, share insights, and reflect on the broader role that membership engagement and conferencing play in shaping sustainable associations in New Zealand.
