The NZSSD Executive is delighted to offer Conference grants to provide assistance to attend the ASM to those members who do not have dedicated CME funds (if applying you will be asked to declare this). You must be a member of NZSSD for at least one year to apply. Applications for this will close with the early-bird closing date. Note that this is a limited fund. All details about applying are on the ASM website. Payment will only be made to individuals and will not be made until registration is completed.

We have been working hard putting together the programme and are delighted to have confirmed both overseas and local speakers, details are on the ASM website.  Both the ASM and SIG meetings are in-person only events. 

An integral part of the meeting are the social functions which provide opportunities for networking and catching up with colleagues from across the motu. Our ASM industry soiree will be held in the industry  exhibition area on Wednesday 6 May after the AGM. And on Thursday 7 May our gala dinner will be held at the conference venue. As we are celebrating the 50th year of the society the theme for 2026 is Golden Glam.

The call for abstracts is also open and we look forward to receiving your submissions. This is also done via the conference website.

We look forward to seeing you in Ahuriri Napier next May.
