How the Moore Markhams Continuing Education Conference Strengthens Our Network

Connected for Success

At Moore Markhams, our strength lies in connection. It’s what sets us apart—our ability to collaborate across firms, share insights, and build trust with colleagues throughout New Zealand and beyond. This commitment to connection was on full display at the 2025 Moore Markhams Continuing Education Conference, held in Queenstown.

With over 150 delegates from New Zealand and colleagues from our sister network in Australia, the annual event is a key moment in our professional calendar. It’s a chance for our advisors to deepen their knowledge, refine their skills, and strengthen the trust that underpins everything we do.

Why Our Continuing Education Conference Matters

At Moore Markhams, firms don’t just gain a brand name—they become part of a genuine partnership that supports their growth, expertise, and ability to serve clients effectively. Events like the Continuing Education Conference are central to this, ensuring that our professionals stay ahead in an evolving business landscape.

This year’s agenda featured insightful sessions on key industry topics:

• Economic outlook by Benje Patterson, offering insights into market trends
• Ethics in practice, led by Russell Stewart and Angus Wakeman, reinforcing the importance of professional integrity
• ‘Reimagining Advisory at Moore’, presented by Inbal Rodnay and Sunny Sirabas from Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, challenging firms to rethink their advisory approach
• Specialist expertise in tax, personal brand development, pharmacy, and agribusiness—ensuring our firms and advisors remain at the cutting edge

For clients, this means working with advisors who are continuously upskilling, staying ahead of regulatory and industry shifts, and bringing fresh thinking to every engagement.

The Power of a Connected Network

One of the most compelling reasons firms choose to join Moore Markhams is our deeply connected network—both locally and globally. Through events like this, we don’t just talk about collaboration; we live it. These face-to-face interactions build trust, foster innovation, and ensure our firms and clients receive the best insights and advice.

For clients, working with a connected firm means access to a breadth of expertise beyond a single office and provides you with a team of advisors that draws on national and global perspectives to provide solutions tailored to their needs.




As we look ahead to next year’s conference in Auckland, we will continue to build on this momentum, creating even more opportunities for learning, connection, and growth.
