We have an exciting year of customer events coming up in 2026. Our events will be extra special this year as it's our 20-year anniversary and we have much to celebrate. Read below about our regional user-groups, Unplugged ’26 and our next webinar.
Unplugged 2026
We are proud to announce that our 2026 customer conference, ComplyWith Unplugged ‘26, will be held on Wednesday, 4 November 2026, at Te Papa, Wellington.
Unplugged will be our biggest and best yet as we celebrate ComplyWith’s 20th anniversary and 10 years since our first Unplugged.
At Unplugged, you’ll learn, share and connect around legal compliance. Expect great guest speakers, practical workshops, networking and much more. With this being an extra-special year, we have a few nice surprises in the planning.
We are thrilled to announce that by popular demand, our most celebrated guest speaker from a great alumni of guest speakers over the past 10 years, Sir Ashley Bloomfield, is pencilled in to give a keynote address at Unplugged ’26.
After so much positive feedback on her engaging and entertaining employment law update last year, we’ve also pencilled in Steph Dyhrberg for Unplugged ’26.
We’ll share more details of the Unplugged ‘26 programme soon.
Unplugged ’26 is free for ComplyWith customers, with a limit on the number of attendees per customer. Please contact us if you’d like to register more than 3 people from your organisation.
We hope to see you there! Tickets are expected to go quickly, so please book your spot now.
If you attend for the full day, you can request a CPD certificate for 5.5 hours of professional development.
Regional User Group Meetings 2026
This year, we are hosting 5 User Group meetings around Aotearoa. ComplyWith User Groups are a great opportunity to learn, share, and connect with other members of your ComplyWith community - especially this year as we celebrate ComplyWith’s 20th anniversary.
At these lunchtime meetings (lunch provided), we’ll be covering topics like:
- The new Corrective Actions module, lifting the bar on your organisation’s tracking of, and reporting on, corrective actions.
- A session on simplifying and clarifying how we talk about legal compliance, and also some of the key messaging we need to be giving leadership and governance.
- An update on all things ComplyWith and better legal compliance in our 20th year.
- Open discussion for sharing experiences and questions, plus input into the future development of your ComplyWith tools.
Please get in touch if there’s something else you’d like us to cover in the meeting.
A big thank you to these ComplyWith customers who are hosting meetings across Aotearoa, including ChristchurchNZ, Powerco (New Plymouth), Vector (Auckland) and The University of Waikato (Hamilton).
