About us
The NZEA is a voluntary organisation formed under the Incorporated Societies Act 1908 on 12 September 2005. The Association was established as the New Zealand Association of Event Professionals (NZAEP) in response to industry demand for a recognised body to represent the burgeoning events industry in New Zealand. The Association's principle was to bring professionals together to focus on the industry as a whole and to act as a voice for that industry and its 1,100+ members. The NZ Events Association (NZEA formerly NZAEP), our new name reflects simply both our members and the ever changing face of the dynamic events sector of New Zealand.

Last week our GM Elaine Linnell provided an update on our sustainable events journey at the Ad Net Zero event in Auckland. This event outlined how the advertising industry has been making great progress across agency operational emissions measurement; production emissions measurement; global progress on media measurement; and plans for code reviews from the ASA. With events often being a big part of the marketing mix, and advertising campaigns, it was great to show this industry the work the New Zealand events world have been doing in this space, and showcasing our new central hub: https://lnkd.in/gbvE2y6R. Thanks for having us, together we can make a bigger difference. Download their State of the Industry report here: https://lnkd.in/gVqYVyGS Jennifer Gunn Simon Lendrum
