Event description

 Get ready to be inspired!

We’re thrilled to announce Naomi Ballantyne ONZM as the keynote speaker at this year’s Waikato Pacific Business Network’s AGM!

Naomi is a proud Pasifika woman, a former business owner, and a mother whose journey from modest beginnings in Glenfield, Auckland, to becoming one of New Zealand’s most successful insurance leaders.

With over 40 years in the industry, Naomi made history by founding Partners Life, later sold in a landmark $1 billion deal and is the only woman globally to have built and scaled three major life insurers in one country.

Naomi explains that her story is often requested because it’s inspiring and deeply relatable, especially for women and business owners. She openly shares the challenges of balancing motherhood and leadership, and the judgments she faced, particularly as a Pacific woman. Her story doesn’t just celebrate success; it speaks to the struggles, sacrifices, and resilience behind it.

Delivered with warmth, honesty, and humour, Naomi’s keynote will explore themes of courage, innovation, values-led leadership, and overcoming adversity. Her journey often evokes strong emotional responses, leaving audiences feeling seen, inspired, and empowered.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear from one of Aotearoa’s most remarkable business leaders. Naomi’s story isn’t just worth hearing; it’s one you’ll never forget.

Plus, complimentary drinks, delicious refreshments & much more.
