But are we viewing our future through an overly pessimistic lens\, or are there genuine reasons for concern? \nWe’re pleased to welcome David Farrar\, New Zealand blogger and pollster\, as our keynote speaker\, alongside a panel of senior industry leaders: \nAndrew Fairgray | Chief Business Officer\, 2degrees\nJarrod Kerr | Chief Economist\, Kiwibank\nCecilia Robinson | Founder and Co-CEO\, Tend Health \nTogether\, they will examine the attitudes shaping New Zealand’s economic narrative and discuss questions including: \n\nAre we too down on ourselves\, particularly in Auckland?\nWhat factors are driving relatively low business and consumer confidence?\nIs there a compelling case for greater economic optimism?\nWhy are some regions performing more strongly than others\, and what can Auckland learn from them?\nWhat will it take to shift sentiment and unlock growth?\n\nThis engaging breakfast discussion will provide valuable insights into the forces influencing confidence\, investment\, and economic performance\, while exploring what lies ahead for Auckland and New Zealand. As always\, attendees will have the opportunity to put their questions directly to the panel during an interactive Q&A session. \nJoin us for a morning of informed debate\, fresh perspectives\, and meaningful connections.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”5″][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default”][divider line_type=”No Line”

Most of it isn’t built for businesses like yours. \nThat’s why we’ve teamed up with Arcanum AI and AWS to put on something different. Real examples from real Auckland SMBs\, not theory and not hype. \nWhy AI matters for SMBs right now\nAI is levelling the playing field. You don’t need deep pockets or a big tech team to compete anymore. Sales teams using AI are growing revenue faster than those that aren’t\, and early movers are already pulling ahead on win rates. \nKey benefits for SMBs\nBusinesses already on this are seeing it pay off: less time on manual work\, sharper marketing without a big team\, stronger sales through better forecasting\, and often lower running costs too. \nBut here’s the catch. Only 3% of SMBs have fully built AI into their strategy\, while 34% are still piloting. Most are stuck behind two barriers: data privacy and security concerns\, and a lack of in-house skills. \nThat’s exactly why events like this matter. 57% of SMBs rely on partners and providers for guidance on AI\, rather than going it alone. The ones who act early will be best placed for growth\, which is why SMBs are now putting an average of 17.4% of their IT budget into generative AI\, climbing to near 25% once it’s fully embedded. \nCome along\, ask questions\, compare notes\, and let us help you work out your next move. \nPanel Discussion: \nNick Roberts – CEO\, Momentum Consulting Group  \n“We believe the future of recruitment is human insight backed by intelligent technology. Numa is exactly that.  It amplifies our team\, sharpens our thinking\, and helps us be Greater Together for our clients and candidates.” \nTroy Ironside – Managing Director\, Home and Office Painting Limited \n“Numa is helping us take the PAIN out of PAINting. It’s like having our entire office staff in one package—helping us stay organised\, save time\, and keep the business running smoothly.” \nRik Flowerday – Director\, Flowerday Homes \n“Find the opportunity\, make it better\, and build it to last.” \nAsa Cox – Founder & CEO – askNuma AI \nEvent Details\nDate: Thursday 20th August 2026\nTime: 7:00am – 9:30am\nLocation: Jade Room\, Cordis Hotel[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”5″][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”211688″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” animation_easing=”default” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” margin_bottom=”390″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”216975″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”right” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\nNick Roberts \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\nCEO\, Momentum \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Nick Roberts has spent his career at the crossroads of people\, technology\, and commercial performance and he’s brought all three together at Momentum Consulting Group\, one of New Zealand’s most established recruitment firms. \nAs CEO\, Nick is obsessed with one idea: that the future of recruitment belongs to those who can blend genuine human insight with the best technology on the planet. That conviction led him to build MomentumIQ\, Momentum’s technology arm\, and to go all-in on AI as a competitive advantage not a buzzword. \nToday\, Nick joins us to pull back the curtain on Momentum’s real-world AI adoption journey on AWS.

But India is not one market. With 28 states — each with its own regulatory environment\, sector strengths\, investment incentives\, and business culture — knowing where to engage is just as important as knowing why. \nThe report found that 43% of New Zealand businesses have low confidence in understanding how Indian states differ — one of the most significant capability gaps identified across the survey. \nIndia Unlocked is the Auckland Business Chamber’s direct response to that finding. Delivered in partnership with the Consulate General of India in Auckland\, this webinar series introduces New Zealand businesses to India’s states one by one\, providing the practical\, on-the-ground knowledge needed to make confident market entry decisions. \nWebinar 1: Andhra Pradesh\, Telangana & Odisha \nOur first webinar introduces three of India’s dynamic and fast-growing states\, each representing distinct and compelling opportunities for New Zealand businesses. \nThe States \nAndhra Pradesh Located on India’s southeast coast along the Bay of Bengal\, Andhra Pradesh is one of India’s fastest-growing states and an increasingly attractive destination for international business. Key sectors include aquaculture and seafood\, agri-processing\, renewable energy\, pharmaceuticals and manufacturing. With a business-friendly government actively courting foreign investment and strong natural alignment with New Zealand’s own sectoral strengths\, it represents a compelling opportunity for NZ businesses in food systems\, agritech and clean energy. \nTelangana Home to Hyderabad — one of India’s most globally connected business cities — Telangana is a powerhouse for technology\, pharmaceuticals\, life sciences\, agritech and financial services. Consistently ranked among India’s highest performers on ease of doing business\, the state offers a mature ecosystem for New Zealand firms in the tech\, agritech and services sectors\, including strong research and co-innovation infrastructure. \nOdisha Odisha has emerged as one of India’s most improved investment destinations\, attracting significant foreign direct investment in manufacturing\, minerals processing\, aquaculture\, and infrastructure. With a government committed to business facilitation and a fast-evolving industrial base\, Odisha presents opportunities for NZ businesses in food systems\, manufacturing inputs and professional services. \nWhat you’ll take away \n\nA clear picture of each state’s economic strengths and growth priorities\nInsight into the sectors and entry points most relevant to NZ businesses\nAn understanding of state-level incentives\, investment conditions and business culture\nPractical guidance on next steps for engaging in each state\nThe opportunity to ask questions directly of state speakers and representatives\n\nWho should attend? \nThis webinar is designed for New Zealand business leaders\, exporters\, investors and entrepreneurs who are actively exploring or planning engagement with India\, and who want to move beyond a generic view of the market to make better-informed\, state-specific decisions. \nPresented by \nThe Auckland Business Chamber in partnership with the Consulate General of India in Auckland. \nThis webinar series builds directly on the findings of the NZ–India Business Momentum 2026 report\, produced by the Auckland Business Chamber\, Deloitte and the Consulate General of India in Auckland. \nA recording will be made available to all registered attendees. \nHave questions about the series?
