Summit 2022
OUR NEW FUTURE
16-18 August 2022
Napier, New Zealand
The best way to predict the future is to create it, and that journey starts right here, right now.
Having the right information and insights is vital to success, which is why Summit 2022 draws on insightful experts and forward thinkers from our sector and associated complementary fields. Their sessions will be invaluable for informing our new futures through market analysis, international perceptions, regenerative farming, sustainable practises, healthy aging, bio-active commercialisation, future visioning, and more.
Natural Health Products NZ celebrates our 20th anniversary this year, so Summit 2022 also provides the perfect opportunity to reflect on how our sector’s pioneering spirit informs decision-making to create our exciting new future.
Registrations are open. If you would like any further information, please contact:
