Local Business Forum with Hon. Chris Penk

Business Whanganui is hosting a practical forum with Hon. Chris Penk, Minister for Building and Construction, Minister for Small Business and Manufacturing, Minister for Land Information, and Associate Minister for Defence, Emergency Management, and Immigration, in association with Carl Bates MP for Whanganui.

 This is an opportunity for Whanganui business leaders, Chamber members, and commercial building owners to hear from Minister Penk, and for the Minister to hear directly from local businesses about their needs and challenges across his portfolio areas.

 We encourage attendees to come ready to share practical insight on regulatory settings, compliance requirements, investment decisions, workforce pressures, and the realities of operating a business or earthquake strengthening a commercial property in our region.

 Constructive dialogue matters. This forum creates a direct channel between central government and Whanganui’s business community, ensuring our perspective is heard where decisions are made.

 Please contact Helen for more information.
