DWN Conference 2026 - Success through Inspiration

The DWN Conference 2026 – Success Through Inspiration, supported by Bayleys Canterbury, is set to be our biggest, boldest, most empowering event yet!

Proudly supported by Bayleys Canterbury.

Get ready for powerhouse speakers, hands-on workshops, unmissable networking moments, a glamorous Fonterra Gala Dinner and Fonterra & Global Women’s Breakfast that will leave you energised and motivated long after the conference ends.

This is your chance to step out of the everyday and into a space buzzing with passion, purpose, and possibility. Connect with others in the Ag sector, spark new ideas with industry leaders, build meaningful relationships — and share plenty of laughs along the way.

What you’ll learn:

  • Build a collaborative business plan — transform tough conversations into confident, lasting decisions.
  • Unlock the power in your farm — turn real farm insights into high-impact, measurable results.
  • Create value through a connected dairy-beef system — understand the opportunities, the strategy, and the future potential.
  • Lead from self to team — strengthen your leadership foundations and lift the people around you.
  • Communicate with confidence — discover simple, effective tools that help everyone work better together.
  • Plus so much more… inspiring ideas, practical takeaways, and conversations that spark real change.

How will it change you?

  • Feel confident and empowered to seize new opportunities with clarity and purpose.
  • Be inspired and motivated by stories, insights, and the incredible energy of the people around you.
  • Reignite your passion and creativity for the industry you love.
  • Gain fresh perspectives that challenge your thinking and expand what you believe is possible.
  • Walk away with practical, actionable strategies you can implement immediately.

Come and be part of something extraordinary. Your next breakthrough starts here.
