01 September - BMSB, with MPI
Join CBAFF and Ministry of Primary Industries at 12 noon on 1 September for a practical update on the 2026/27 Brown Marmorated Stink Bug season.
With no confirmed changes to the current requirements, this is a great opportunity to refresh your knowledge, make sure your team is prepared and get your questions answered directly by MPI.
We’ll focus on what brokers, and freight forwarders need to know as BMSB-risk goods start moving into New Zealand, and the key requirements to keep front of mind throughout the season.
09 September - Technology & AI in New Zealand
Format: Online Webinar
Focus: An honest, industry-focused conversation about the technology and AI trends shaping freight forwarding and customs broking - including where AI is delivering real value, and where it can still get things confidently, convincingly, and sometimes hilariously wrong.
Why Attend: Cut through the hype and gain practical insights into emerging technology, how to evaluate what is actually worth your attention, and the questions your business should be asking to get ahead.
Who Should Attend: Customs brokers, freight forwarders, logistics professionals, business leaders and anyone interested in understanding how technology and AI will shape the industry over the next three to five years.
