ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
New Zealand’s exposure to weather-related risks is increasing and with it, the urgency to act.
Taking on Risk: Building Resilience Together brings leaders from government, industry, and communities into one room to focus on what can actually be done to reduce risk, build resilience, and keep insurance within reach for all New Zealanders.
With 2026 an election year, it’s also the moment to ask: what will our political leaders do to move from risk to resilience?
This year’s conference moves beyond conversation to action — showcasing practical initiatives, collaborative solutions, and real-world steps to protect homes, people, and communities for generations to come.
Join us for a day of insight, learning, and connection as we work together to turn shared responsibility into collective resilience.
CONFERENCE THEME
Taking on Risk: Building Resilience Together
The 2026 ICNZ Conference theme, Taking on Risk: Building Resilience Together, challenges all sectors to move from awareness to action in responding to New Zealand’s growing natural hazard risks.
It will focus on how homeowners, government, councils, the private sector, and communities can take concrete steps to reduce risk, strengthen resilience, and ensure that insurance remains accessible and sustainable in a changing climate.
“Awesome event, one of the highlights on my work calendar each year”
