Election 2020 Candidates Forum:
 
Level 6 was buzzing again with over 40 people for lunch, for the 1st September meeting.
All 9 of the Invercargill candidates attended and had to work with the challenge of presenting their messages within 3 minutes .  MC Craig did an awesome job. 
Huge thanks to Trish Lindsay and the Guest Speaker committee on making this happen!
 
   
   
Left to Right or Right to Left? Wrong or Right?
Everyone can have a different perspective.
 
Trish is looking to do another panel forum early 2021 so if you have a suggestion or idea for a forum, or you know of someone who would be an interesting, topical and informative Guest Speaker  - please contact Trish Lindsay by email trish.lindsay@sit.ac.nz  or by phone on 027 685 4713 to discuss.
