“The first M2 woman Journey to Excellence event we went to was when Kiri Barfoot, our Director at the time, presented (this was in 2018). We have booked a table at the event ever since. I think one of the speakers this year summed up the event very well when she said – there is an amazing vibe in the room – let’s all propel ourselves out of here. It is a special afternoon, great networking with your own table and with the room as a whole. Every year the speakers are fantastic and we have already booked our table for next year.”

“I had the privilege of attending the M2Woman Journey to Excellence event at the Pullman Hotel in Auckland, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! The energy in the room was electric, and the inspirational speakers left me and my team feeling motivated and empowered. The event was expertly organised creating a welcoming and engaging atmosphere that fostered meaningful connections and learning. What struck me most was the emphasis on resilience and growth, with key takeaways that will stay with me long after the event. If you’re looking for a way to elevate your professional journey and connect with like-minded women, this event is a must-attend.”
