New Zealand Winegrowers is the national industry organisation that represents, researches, and promotes the interests of New Zealand grape growers and wine makers.
New Zealand Winegrowers conducts a wide range of activities including; coordination of research programmes; provision of a generic marketing platform for New Zealand wine makers in key markets; provision of timely and accurate data and business information to grape growers and wine makers; and representation of industry interests to national and local Government and in international fora.
Philip will shortly be retiring after spending over 40 years promoting the interests of the New Zealand industry. He has been with New Zealand Winegrowers and its predecessor, the Wine Institute of New Zealand, since starting as a Research officer in 1983. He has held the role of Chief Executive Officer since 1990. Philip has gained Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts (Hons) degrees, majoring in Geography, from the University of Auckland.
This promises to be a fascinating opportunity to gain Philip's insights on the development and global prospects for the wine industry, which has become such an important feature of the New Zealand, and particularly Hawke Bay, economy over recent decades.
The usual door charge of $8 will apply, to cover venue hire and afternoon tea costs.
As usual, the discussion will be 'off the record', under the Chatham House Rule.
