South Events is proud to support New Zealand's science and technology sectors and recently managed the 2014 New Zealand Marine Sciences Society Conference. With a background in science research, event manager Kerry South understands the aims of a scientific programme and works hard to craft and deliver the exact programme required. More importantly she enjoys working within the scientific and technology communities which allows her to continue to stay abreast of developments in its fields. What's next? A microscopy conference 2-6 February 2015 in Dunedin with Microscopy New Zealand and the University of Otago!
NZMSS 2014 Conference, 11-14 August, Nelson
In a merging of crown-research organisations, industry, academia, non-profits and government this year's annual New Zealand Marine Sciences Society Conference kicked off at the top of the south island. There were over 250 delegates in attendance and great representation from student researchers from all around New Zealand due to the event's inclusive nature. A very full programme delivered three concurrent sessions running over three days with nine plenary speakers including Minister Nick Smith, Rob Murdoch (NIWA), and Mary Livingston (MPI) who opened the conference. As this group only meets once a year, delegates enjoyed reconnecting during evening social events including the conference dinner where dining, dancing and laughing were enjoyed with good humor all while wearing marine themed hats in tribute to Nelson's Wearable Arts history.
