We’ve lined up a full day of interesting speakers covering topics relevant to Marlborough’s future, from diversification and future land use to innovation and new business opportunities. You’ll hear different perspectives, learn what’s working elsewhere and explore what it could mean for your business and our region.

We’ll kick off with a fireside chat with Carlos Bagrie from Royalburn Station, hearing how he’s diversified and added value to the traditional farming model. This will be followed by a panel of locals discussing what diversification and new approaches to land use could look like here in Marlborough.

After lunch, we’ll turn to solar, technology, communications, AI and workforce, with BNZ also sharing some practical tips on building a great relationship with your bank.

We’ll wrap up by celebrating some of the great things happening in our region and looking at how local businesses can make the most of the opportunities ahead.

And, like all good Chamber events, we’ll finish with a networking hour over local refreshments, thanks to Kaiaka and Spy Valley Wines.
