In November, ALGIM will be holding our 2023 Annual Conference at Takina Convention Centre in Wellington. This is a unique opportunity to network with colleagues across NZ who are all working in the same sector. Many great connections are made during this event. The conference will include keynote presentations, case studies, panel discussions, annual awards, workshops, vendor exhibition, site visits and everything you expect from an ALGIM Conference. Presentations will include thought leadership, practical advice, motivation and innovation in ICT, web/digital, customer experience, GIS, and information/records management.
As usual, we will have an exhibition hall full of our corporate members and other vendors who work across the local government sector. We are very grateful to them and especially our elite partners 2degrees, MagiQ Software and Information Leadership who help support this conference.

Ten years ago he came and addressed an ALGIM conference where he outlined the impacts of AI and what it would mean; he talked about new transport options, drone proliferation, the challenges of teaching children who could get access to information many times faster than their teachers could provide and so much more. Ten years on he returns to New Zealand and will be shining a beacon on the theme navigating uncharted territory. Much of what Thomas predicted came to pass so let’s see what the years ahead will bring and how we can prepare ourselves, our teams and even our families.
