Good morning and thank you for being here at New Zealand’s first Cyber Security Summit.

We’ve come together to address a significant challenge facing New Zealand’s $231 billion economy.

I invited you as Chief Executives, Board Chairs and business leaders from across the public and private sector because you play an essential role in driving New Zealand’s economy.

Good morning

It’s a pleasure to be here this morning to present the opening address at the 2nd Media Technology Pacific conference representing both my Communications and Broadcasting portfolios.

It’s no accident that I hold both those roles. 

After serving as Communications and IT Minister for three years during our previous term it had become clear to me that the space between these areas was shrinking so quickly that to deal with one without the other risked missing the realities of what was occurring in the real world.

Good evening,

You are here because we share a common belief – that cyber security is a critical issue for New Zealand.

I want to start out by saying that the Government is as committed to a secure, resilient and prosperous online New Zealand as you are.

And I’m here tonight to announce a step-change in the way we combat cyber threats.

APEC represents a regional bloc of considerable economic and political significance to New Zealand.

Good morning, kia ora koutou.

Thank you very much for having me back at NetHui.

I was doing a count up this morning and I think this is probably my fifth NetHui event between NetHui and NetHui South.

Can I just begin my acknowledging Jordan Carter and Internet New Zealand. Thank you for the work that you do putting these events together.

The internet is everyone’s business

Good morning and thank you for the invitation for me to speak to you today.

I want to thank the Radio Frequency Users Association of New Zealand for organising this event and inviting me to speak again.

Let me first acknowledge your association chairman, Bruce Harding, and all his hard work and enthusiasm in the sector.

Since 1990, the association have been keen advocates and promoters of the rights of those requiring access to radio spectrum, and it’s great to see your organisation is still in good heart after 25 years.
