About this Event
Join CIGRE New Zealand’s Women in Engineering (WiE) and Next Generation Network (NGN) for a free networking breakfast, as part of the CIGRE NZ 2026 Annual Conference.
This informal standing breakfast brings together Wellington-based engineers, young professionals and students working in, or interested in, the power and energy sector. Meet experienced engineers, hear how they built their careers, and connect with peers across the industry.
In line with the conference theme, Building Expertise for Deeper Electrification, the breakfast celebrates the technical expertise our sector needs as New Zealand electrifies.
