The team are settled back in after an engaging four days in Melbourne at the annual LawPlus conference. It’s a rare chance to mix with our peers from around Aotearoa and share experiences, successes, and challenges.

We were treated to an inspiring line up of speakers on thought provoking topics from obsession to neurodiversity to value-based pricing. And an honest conversation on the joys and realities of starting your own law firm from our Director, Scott Moran, alongside Caroline (Caro) Rieger from Black Door Law and Sonya Whitcombe Whitcombe Law . Ka pai to speakers Katrina McCarter, Justine McKeogh, Philip Corne and John Eales for sharing their stories and expertise.

The mini exhibition provided an opportunity to meet our service providers face to face and learn about new products and features. And of course, we enjoyed some of the excellent hospitality and cuisine Melbourne has to offer!

Thank you Amber Lee for your thoughtful curation of the programme, and Debra Dufty from Event Revolution for the smooth organisation and ex*****on.

Yesterday, Venetia McInman attended "Show Me the Money", hosted by Creative HQ , Movac, Angel HQ New Zealand and Taiawa - Wellington Tech Hub , an event bringing together founders, investors, business leaders, and funding specialists to explore the opportunities and challenges of raising capital.

The Capital Access session featured two engaging panel discussions "The Real Deal: What Nobody Tells You About Raising Capital" (Ben Taylor Bryant (Openstar Technologies) , Mark White-Robinson (Feijoa), John Campbell (Our Energy) and Claudia Smith (APLYiD and Renti )) and "Beyond VC: Finding the Right Capital for your Business" (Kevin Gudmundsson (HeyPenny), Liezl Andrzejewski, Dave Allison (Angel HQ) and Erika Butters (Volition: Because everyone is a Decision Maker ) as well as a keynote presentation from Kiwibank’s StartUp+ programme given by Oren Dalton.

A key takeaway was that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to funding. The right capital pathway depends on a business’s stage of growth, long-term objectives, and capacity to meet the responsibilities that can accompany different funding models.

The discussions highlighted the importance of understanding your market, developing a clear growth strategy, building strong partnerships, and ensuring appropriate legal and contractual frameworks are in place before seeking investment. Speakers also emphasised that while investors want to see tangible progress, the ability to communicate a compelling vision for the future can be equally important.

It was a valuable event that reinforced the role of strategic planning, strong relationships, and sound legal foundations in supporting sustainable business growth.

There’s something powerful about being in a room full of people who genuinely want to see each other succeed.

Recently, Fergielyn Catayoc attended the Connect, Create, Collaborate event hosted by NZ Businesswomen in partnership with Icehouse and Business Central , and came away inspired by the experience.

Fergielyn noted that there was a genuine sense of collaboration and support in the room. Everyone was engaged, curious about what people did, and interested in hearing about each other's ambitions and goals.

Events like these remind us of the value of connection, shared experiences, and building communities that lift others up.

Thank you to everyone involved in creating such an encouraging and inspiring event.
