Registrations are now open for Futurespace 2026, the ACE New Zealand annual conference. It’s shaping up to be a great event – we hope to see you there!

Lead with impact. Partner with purpose. Deliver with confidence.

How can business leaders make a meaningful impact and influence direction in today’s complex and fast-changing environment?

Futurespace 2026 will focus on what it really takes to shape decisions, build trusted partnerships and deliver work that makes a measurable difference.

Across two days, you’ll hear from clients and industry leaders who will share practical examples of where consultants make an impact, what clients value and how to stand out in a crowded market.

It’s also a great space to connect – with peers navigating similar challenges, with leaders who have made the step up, and with clients who bring a valuable external perspective.

It’s an opportunity to pause, reflect and recalibrate your next move. Join executives, innovators and emerging leaders as we explore how to lead with clarity, partner with purpose and deliver with confidence.

Who should attend Futurespace? 

Futurespace is for future firm leaders and industry influencers. It’s designed for mid to senior leaders who play a key role in running the business, are new to the C-suite or on your way there, or progressing towards business ownership.

At Futurespace, you’ll step beyond the echo chamber of your own organisation. You’ll experience new conversations and perspectives that challenge your thinking and help you build a stronger growth mindset.

Hear from an exciting line-up of speakers 

Guided by MC Mike McRoberts, Futurespace 2026 brings together an exceptional line-up of speakers, including award-winning scientist Dr Siouxsie Wiles, change catalyst Trina Tamati, cultural connector Precious Clark and a panel of clients who will share some uncomfortable truths about what they really value from consultants.

Delve into the topics that matter most  

Futurespace delivers an exciting mix of presentations, workshops and discussions. From refining how you communicate your value, to identifying opportunities others may miss, to working through complex scenarios, each session is designed to build capability you can use immediately.
