Keynote Speakers

Jonathan Pain - Global economics and geo-political expert

It is his view, that the world is increasingly divided between those nations that are submerging

and those that are emerging, which he has called the new reality.

Jonathan Pain has been in the investment industry for 38 years and has led investment teams in London, Bahrain and Sydney. He is the author of The Weekly Pain Report which is written without fear and without favour. Jonathan has lived in six countries and travelled to sixty.

In his keynote, Jonathan will provide a commentary on the key events which will shape and define the world you live in, over the years and decades ahead. It is his view, that the world is increasingly divided between those nations that are submerging and those that are emerging, which he has called the new reality. The submerging nations will spend less and save more and the emerging will spend more and save less.

Jonathan will provide you with an independent and objective perspective of the global economy to help you navigate through the extraordinary times ahead. Seeing the world as a giant jigsaw puzzle, with new pieces arriving every day. Each piece contains a clue and a hint of what the future might look like. He will share his picture of the future with you.

Christopher Luxon - Leader of the Opposition

Prior to leaping onto the political mainstage as Leader of the National Party, Christopher Luxon was renowned as the business leader who, as Chief Executive, turned the fortune of our national carrier Air New Zealand around to deliver record profits and all-time high customer satisfaction scores, and achieved its highest levels of staff engagement.

He has a distinguished business career including President and Chief Executive Officer at Unilever Canada, one of several senior leadership roles he held during an 18-year career at the multinational level that saw him work in roles in Europe, North America and Asia–Pacific.

Christopher has considerable experience and insight into dealing with complex, changing and challenging commercial environments and will draw on this background to express his vision for a prosperous nation.

Belinda Storey - Climate Risk Expert

As Managing Director of Climate Sigma, Belinda has developed a new model for valuing property under climate change called “climate leases” and in 2017 she coined the term “insurance retreat”.

Belinda is a Senior Research Fellow at the New Zealand Climate Change Research Institute where she conducts research on the impact of escalating climate hazards on infrastructure, real estate, banking and insurance. As Managing Director of Climate Sigma, Belinda has developed a new model for valuing property under climate change called “climate leases” and in 2017 she coined the term “insurance retreat”.

Belinda Storey is a director of State-Owned Enterprise Pāmu/Landcorp and was a member of XRB’s External Advisory Panel on Climate-related Financial Disclosures.

Gus Balbontin - investor, entrepreneur, founder and explorer

"The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do." - Steve Jobs

Gus Balbontin is one of them.

Born and bred in wild Patagonia, Gus never allowed his small town and humble beginnings get in the way of his big dreams - he landed his dream job at Lonely Planet. Fast forward a few more years and he was leading the company globally, working with companies such as Google X, Nokia and Amazon on the latest technology, creative cultures and high performing teams.

Steve Jobs said that the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do. Gus Balbontin is one of them. He’s an investor, entrepreneur, founder and explorer who has spent two decades helping businesses adjust strategies, products, services, culture and individuals to better deal with rapid and regular changing markets.

Gus Balbontin will delve deep into the digital transformation of the past two decades, sharing stories of how so many companies mishandled this seismic shift and how today’s business leaders can capitalise on the disruption that’s still occurring today.

Gus is candid and full of energy. He will make you laugh hard and equally think deeply about the puzzles of running a business irrespective of size. His common sense will disarm you and his practical approach will get you inspired to take action!
