The Future of Marketing event by @themarketingclub_aunz

The future isn’t about creating more content, it’s about creating content that connects, stands out, and makes a difference to humans!

AI is changing the game, but creativity, human insight, authenticity, and trust remain our greatest strengths.

Think strategically. Be creatively brave. Keep it human 💛

Auckland Startup Week had so many interesting events to choose from. Stoked to win 3rd place at the mini-hackathon on Tuesday night at Icehouse, and see all the AI-developed prototypes at the Mayor’s hackathon using Council data in cool ways. ~ Thanks to everyone putting in the work to support tech and innovation! #aucklandstartupweek

We had a major cow theme for the FW climate week NYC special.

@jackrangooni stepped up and took some amazing photos for the September NYC Flat White! Absolute content weapon!

@mikaele_ymker from @halterhq spoke about sustainability and fenceless farms. The work they do helps grass grow back more efficiently and cows are grazing in places not previously possible 🐄 🐮

Dr Tom Williams joined us from @number8bio who are reducing methane emissions from cows by 90%. They’re in commercial trials in Australia and going through FDA in the US. It’s a long road but this epic team is in it for the long haul 💊 🐄

@mason.bleakley is the newly minted US/NYC local for our friends at @icehouseventures. This legend has invested in some of NZs best startups and shared his own hustle story to pry open the door at 19! They’re looking to invest in the kiwi diaspora now too! With on the ground support for GTM motions into the states. Early 🚀 🇺🇸 🥝

This was the first morning we transformed @jewettfarms into a near functioning cafe with proper flat whites and pastries! Thanks to @icehouseventures and @jewettfarms for your love, support, (and patience). And @keanewzealand for always connecting.

Last night: Funding that Accelerates Your Business, live at the Icehouse.

Thanks to our panel Lindsay Fisher, Rod Morris and Mike Burke for the honest talk on getting SME funding right, and to ScotPac and the Icehouse for making it happen.

Another one in the books for our Networking & Note-taking series 🙌

Hugo Inglis made the Black Sticks at 18, living at his aunt and uncle's in Auckland, enrolled in law, not really doing law.

One senior player took it on himself to drive him to every training and home again. Did you do your gym? Are you ready? He probably never realised he was doing it.

Another one told him he passed too slowly. We're international players. Pick it up. This isn't amateur hour.

Quiet care from one, a hard standard from the other. That's what onboarding actually looks like when a team is good at it and neither of them was told to do it.

New Zealand has never had trouble building world-class teams. The All Blacks, the Black Ferns, the sevens, the cricket, the netball, the rowing.

Hugo Inglis reckons we're now doing the same thing with companies,Halter, Rocket Lab, Xero, and that nobody has properly joined the two up.

That's the idea behind the Icehouse Ventures athletes fund. A community bringing athletes into the start-up world, and a fund letting athletes point some of their capital at New Zealand companies.

In the boat they called them one-percenters. Don't leave a stone unturned.

What surprised Jackie Gowler about moving from an Olympic squad into venture capital wasn't how different it was. It was how much of it was written down. Icehouse Ventures has a list of principles, ownership, accountability for what you're doing, and the one she keeps coming back to: trust is built in drips and lost in buckets.

Her line: it's cool that those things are actually addressed in the workplace
