UPDATE: COVID-19 restrictions have led to the cancellation of Annual Connection 2021 in Christchurch next month with event organisers promising to make next year’s event the best yet.
“2021 marks the 20th year of this iconic Electricity Supply Industry (ESI) showcase and it was shaping up to be a fitting celebration, not only of the event itself, but of the tradespeople and product innovations that keep the country switched on,” Kaarin says.
Work on Annual Connection 2022 has already begun, with a determination to make it a huge success. Some sponsors have already confirmed they are back on board and it promises to be much anticipated after a two-year hiatus. (The event was also cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19.) Read more>
Annual Connection is the only platform of its kind that connects, celebrates, and showcases the people and companies of the Electricity Supply Industry. The people that keep New Zealand's power on.
The best Cable Jointers and Line Mechanics come together, from across New Zealand, for this three-day competition and event.
There is plenty happening on the sidelines too, with industry exhibitors showcasing the latest in technology and innovation and career presentations to schools.
