North Canterbury Youth Futures Careers Expo - Exhibitor Registration

We would love to invite you to be part of the North Canterbury Youth Futures Expo 2025. This offers a fantastic opportunity for youth, but also for showcasing local businesses and opportunities, with multiple benefits.

At the expo, young people can learn more about the various opportunities and requirements within these industries which may in turn influence their subject and study choices or their pathway to employment past school.

Are you ready to make a difference in the lives of North Canterbury's youth while showcasing your business to the community?
Alongside education and training providers we are seeking presence from local businesses and industries to maximise opportunities for our youth in their own communities.

All about the money...

NCYF is a voluntary group comprised of local organisations all committed to providing opportunities for rangatahi to realise their potential and career aspirations. The NCYF group is seeking ways to viably continue to deliver this initiative that brings significant value to our rangatahi, communities, tertiary providers and businesses. To do this, NCYF must recover the cost to deliver this event. In 2025, NCYF is asking for donations from exhibitors to attend the event. For local business and smaller education and training providers, the amount requested is voluntary. Funds donated will contribute to the cost of hire for the MainPower Stadium and other event costs. NCYF is also seeking financial support from larger tertiary education providers and sponsorship support for the event from a range of partners to cover the remaining costs.
