On Monday the 20th of October 2025, the Trust held its annual Auckland Corporate Network Event in conjunction with Russell McVeagh at the Vero Centre in Auckland.

Brent McAnulty, the Trust’s Chair, reflected on the year and the Trust’s activities. He acknowledged Veolia, Spark, TVNZ, Fonterra, and Downer NZ, who have hosted (or are set to host) MPs on business attachments this year. Brent also mentioned how the Trust has funded 41 schools so far this year to visit Parliament for civics education.

The network event provided an opportunity for guests, corporate members of the Trust, and the Trust’s Board members, to improve their connections and learn about industry developments.
