We're excited to announce this year's Festival of Business Analysis happening in the week of the 16th of October. Our lineup is confirmed, with four great guest speakers joining the event night in Auckland.
Auckland will be the first city to host the in-person event on Monday, 16th of October. And over the week, you can attend the online sessions run by the main event.
The in-person event will start at 5.30 pm, welcoming all our guests, and at 6 pm, we'll run a panel with our main guest speakers. After the panel, you'll enjoy complimentary food and drinks and great networking with our guest speakers, IIBA board members from Australia and New Zealand, BA managers, recruiters, and other special guests attending on the day.
