INVITATION
Haere mai,
Following our name change from SOLGM to Taituarā —
Local Government Professionals Aotearoa in early 2021, we have
also taken the opportunity to refresh the way we deliver our annual
networking event – the Taituarā Conference (known previously as the
SOLGM Annual Summit). Things will look a bit different, but our aim remains
the same – to deliver an inspiring learning and networking event for our members,
partners and friends from across the local government, central government and
private sectors.
This year’s theme is 2050: Embracing the Challenge – Creating the Future.
We’ll explore challenges and look at how we can prepare, think differently
and respond, in order to shape our future.
In this prospectus you’ll find a number of opportunities to connect with the local
government sector, showcase your organisation, product or service and develop
strong business relationships. Your support will contribute to the success of this
event and enable us to deliver value for our members and the sector.
On behalf of the Taituarā Executive, I look forward to partnering with you
and seeing you in Ōtautahi in September.
Ngā manaakitanga,
Phil Wilson
Taituarā President
One of the best sponsorship
experiences we have ever had.

Our kaupapa
Taituarā is the national membership organisation for local government
professionals. Our focus is on providing professional leadership, promoting
innovation and excellence in management practice and developing
local government capability to enhance service delivery to our local
communities, shaping their future throughout Aotearoa New Zealand.
Taituarā — Local Government Professionals Aotearoa New Zealand
was previously known as SOLGM. Taituarā means backbone in
te reo Māori, and metaphorically describes unconditional support
and strength. The new name, which was formally gifted to us by
Ministers Hon Nanaia Mahuta and Hon Peeni Henare, reflects our
organisation’s identity and commitment to promoting, supporting,
and strengthening professional management and operations in
local government.
Local authorities’contribution to
Aotearoa New Zealand

territorial authorities) make a significant contribution to
Aotearoa’s economy, as per the following table: (30 June 2018)
Net worth (also known as “total public equity”) $123.6 billion
Operating Income $9.9 billion
Operating Expenditure $10.3 billion
Capital Expenditure (also known as “additions to fixed assets”) $4.9 billion
Value of Fixed Assets $123.4 billion
26,640 Full-Time Equivalent
