On 26 June, ATEED (now Tātaki Auckland Unlimited) hosted the Future Ready Summit at the Vodafone Events Centre and two TSI staff members, Xavier Black and Anna-Jane Edwards, were among a star-studded speaking line-up, headlined by Sir Stephen Tindall.

The pair addressed thought-leaders and Auckland business people on how we can ensure the future of work creates high quality, meaningful jobs and increased income for young Māori and Pasifika people in west and south Auckland. Their talk was so well received New Zealand’s leading business innovation magazine Idealog did a follow-up interview with the pair on how Auckland can build more inclusive economies.
