HOW CONNECT 2025 CAME TO BE
Martin Michaells an ISO consultant, auditor and the Convenor of Connect 2025, recognised a gap in New Zealand, despite the growing impact of ISO standards across industries, there was a lack of dedicated forum to bring together those working with these systems, such as ISO experts, ISO certified businesses, regulators, training providers, compliance tech innovators and interested organisations. Connect 2025 was initiated to provide that a platform to connect, share ideas, build partnerships and help shape the future of standards across our region.
