Ngā Kōrero Rererangi Aviation Conversations is an evening series celebrating aviation in Aotearoa and the Pacific, from the innovations of the past to the technologies shaping its future.
Set within the Aviation Hall, this is a rare opportunity to hear directly from the people leading and influencing the aviation industry today, in an engaging and intimate after-hours setting.
The upcoming korero in this series explores aerial mappingtechnologies. Join us for a lively panel discussion featuring David and Beryl Pimblott, co-founders of NorthSouth GIS NZ (formerly Explorer Graphics Ltd), one of New Zealand’s longest-established geospatial consultancies.
Under their leadership, the company became a leading provider of geographic information systems (GIS) based on Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri) technology.
The evening will be hosted by celebrated MC Lauren Tīpene, presenter and ex-air steward who brings her own industry insight to the discussion.
Arrive early to enjoy live music, a rolling quiz featuring images from our own Walsh Memorial Library, and explore the Aviation Hall's remarkable collection of aircraft. You’ll have the chance to connect with our knowledgeable hosts to ask questions and discover the stories behind aviation achievements in Aotearoa.
Stop by the bar for a bespoke Aviator gin sour, or browse the MOTAT shop.
Doors open at 6:30pm, with the conversation beginning at 7:00pm.
A cash bar will be available and bookings are essential.
