Here’s what our members say about IABC membership:
Amanda Woodbridge, Director, Matai Partners
“IABC has helped me to build a network of practitioners from Wellington and globally who generously share advice and lessons – the good, bad and ugly. Over my nine years as a member, I’ve been part of the IABC Wellington board, judge of IABC Gold Quills, attended an IABC World Conference and won a Gold Quill. All of these have been great opportunities to learn from the best and to grow my network.”
Rhys Hurd, Communications Account Manager, Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade
“I landed in New Zealand from the UK in 2016 with no job and few contacts. That quickly changed after attending an IABC event. I’d hardly shrugged off my jet-lag by the time I’d landed my first job and significantly built out my contact book – largely thanks to the connections I’d made through the IABC. I’m now serving on the Board and hugely value the connection it gives me to a switched-on, professional community.”
