Overview

This procurement relates to the delivery of the Just Transition National Summit in Taranaki in early May 2019. This RFQ relates to the purchase of an experienced event or conference organiser to run the National Summit. The key outcome is the delivery of the National Summit in May 2019.

The key objective of this event is to generate a national-level conversation on what a just transition is, what a just transition to a low emissions economy might look like for New Zealand, and the types of opportunities it could present for sectors, regions and communities. The Summit will tap into the learnings of other communities, regions and sectors, including internationally, which have been both successful and unsuccessful in transitioning their economy during a period of change and disruption

The Just Transition National Summit will be a two day event, held in New Plymouth in May 2019. The four Councils of Taranaki, Ngā Iwi of Taranaki, Venture Taranaki, and MBIE’s Just Transition Unit are all involved in this national summit in some way. It will be jointly organised by central government (MBIE) and New Plymouth District Council. The National Summit event organiser will work closely with the Governance and Organising committees (made up of MBIE and local Taranaki representatives) to ensure the event meets it core objectives.
