Throwback - French-Kiwi Afterwork – French Pacific Business Forum Edition (March 2026)
A vibrant Afterwork connecting French Pacific delegates and the French-Kiwi business community through pitches and networking.
What a great way to bring the community together! Our latest French-Kiwi Afterwork - French Pacific Business Forum Edition was a fantastic evening, connecting the visiting delegation from the French Pacific with the wider French-Kiwi business community here in Auckland.
We had a wonderful mix of familiar faces and new connections in the room. A real highlight of the evening was the elevator pitch session, where around 20 companies took the stage to share their ideas, projects and ambitions in a series of dynamic 2-minute pitches. The session offered a snapshot of the diversity and innovation across the French Pacific ecosystem.
The conversations continued well into the evening, with plenty of opportunities to connect, reconnect, and explore potential collaborations.
A special thank you to Aimata and Tahiti Oil Factory for showcasing their products, and to Maison Vauron for the delicious food and wine that everyone enjoyed throughout the night.
We would also like to warmly thank our host, the Auckland Business Chamber, for welcoming us into their space, as well as our event sponsor, Baker Tilly Staples Rodway, for their support in making the evening possible.
And of course, thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to such a vibrant atmosphere.
If you’d like to reconnect with someone you met, or perhaps someone you didn’t get the chance to speak with, feel free to reach out! We’d be very happy to help make introductions.
We look forward to seeing many of you again at the next Afterwork.
