Could changing market conditions be your next competitive advantage?

This practical session will explore how New Zealand companies can turn uncertainty into opportunity. You will hear first-hand insights from experienced leaders who have expanded into new markets, scaled internationally and successfully reinvented their businesses when established models were no longer delivering results.

Our panel features Anna-May Isbey, Partner and Market Strategist at Mahon China Investments; Mahara Inglis, CEO of MitoQ; and Ryan Sanders, founder of Haka Tours and Earnscleugh Castle. The discussion will be chaired by Tompkins Wake Partner Tina Liu.

Together, they will unpack four critical stages of sustainable growth: recognising change, making deliberate choices, scaling with purpose and adapting decisively.

Attend this session to gain practical insights into:

• Identifying market shifts and emerging growth opportunities

• Building resilience into your business strategy

• Making confident investment and growth decisions

• Scaling a competitive New Zealand business into new markets

• Applying real-world lessons from leaders who have navigated significant change

Whether you are considering expansion, responding to changing market conditions or looking for the next stage of growth, this session will provide practical ideas to help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
