Join delegates from the science, business, iwi and government communities at the Transit of Venus Forum to hear some of New Zealand’s leading thinkers advance Sir Paul Callaghan’s vision for New Zealand – a place where talent wants to live – a community that is prosperous and inclusive. Director of Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga Professor Charles Royal is one of the speakers.
Attendance at the forum is by invitation, or you can register directly for the limited open places. For more information visit the link below. If you are unable to attend, an online game Pounamu will run alongside the forum sessions, where questions and ideas from the forum will be fed into the online conversation, and vice versa.
