Throwback - Club V.I.E Afterwork in Auckland (March 2026)
A great turnout for the first V.I.E Afterwork of 2026, bringing new, current and alumni V.I.Es together.
We kicked off the year with a fantastic Club V.I.E Afterwork, bringing together the V.I.E community in Auckland for a relaxed and well-attended evening at a great new venue.
It was wonderful to see such a strong turnout, with a mix of new arrivals, current V.I.Es and alumni all coming together to connect, share experiences and start the year on a positive note. A special mention as well to Laura Descampe, who is just beginning her V.I.E journey with FNZCCI - welcome to the community!
This event also marked a special moment for the Club, as it was Katrina’s last V.I.E Afterwork. Over the past two years, Katrina has played a key role in leading the Club V.I.E in New Zealand, helping organise events for the community in both Auckland and Wellington. A big thank you to her for her energy, commitment and the connections she has helped build along the way.
A warm thank you as well to SIFA New Zealand for their longstanding support and sponsorship of the V.I.E Afterworks, and to Daniel for his continued involvement in coordinating the Auckland events and championing this partnership.
And of course, thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere!
We’re looking forward to many more moments like this throughout the year.
