Arotake-Makariri - The Winter Review 2024
Welcome to Arotake-Makariri, our Winter Review, where we pause to reflect on the past six months and celebrate our Aspen NZ community. Many of you have participated in our seminars, online forums and courses, and have stayed engaged through The Lookout.
Thank you for being an integral part of our journey - your support as donors and active participants is crucial in enabling the Aspen NZ programme to thrive.
A few highlights from the past six months:
Aspen Socrates Seminar on The Future of Business held in Queenstown
Delivering ground breaking Evidence and Values Based Decision Making course for Members of Parliament at the Beehive
Live online conversation Navigating the Digital Frontier with partner, Ananta Aspen, in India
Moderating the Sister City Business Forum- Prosperity through Partnership with visiting Aspen and Queenstown Mayors
Hosting our first Youth Seminar on Regenerative Tourism for exchange students from Aspen and Wakatipu High School
Coming up, we have a great lineup of international forums opening new opportunities and networks for New Zealanders, especially in India. In late July, we continue the conversations with Ananta Aspen on Leveraging AgriTech for Secure and Scalable Food Supply Chain, followed by a Diplomatic Dialogue with India in early spring. If you are in Queenstown for skiing, join us for our next Dialogue Dinner - Impact of AI on Future Generations on August 14th at Botswana Butchery.
Thank you for your continued support. Looking ahead, there are many ways you can participate and contribute to make a meaningful impact.
