He will run a workshop bringing his experience working for major companies as the head of communications, working for clients at the top global communications consultancies, and serving as the chief of staff to the president of the worldâs largest independent PR firm.

The Eventing The Future Conference is being held on 9th and 10th August at the Rydges Hotel, Christchurch.

Related activities at the Eventing The Future Conference also present a compelling reason to attend.

Exciting snow reports from the Mt Hutt Skifields (just 90 minutes from Christchurch) make it a great location to combine attending the conference with a ski holiday

In addition, tickets are still available for the trans-Tasman clash of the Bledisloe Cup at AMI Stadium, Christchurch on the Saturday evening.

Tickets for the Bledisloe clash can be purchased once registered for the conference with a maximum of two per registration.
