WORKTECH's Auckland conference: no 2026 date confirmed on the organiser's calendar after the August 2025 Smales Farm edition

MICE editorial — 02 August 2026 Auckland Tier C

WORKTECH runs an annual Auckland future-of-work conference, but organiser Unwired Ventures has not published a 2026 Auckland edition; its WORKTECH26 calendar omits Auckland, and the most recent confirmed edition ran on 5 August 2025 at B:HIVE, Smales Farm.

WORKTECH runs an annual Auckland edition of its global future-of-work and workplace conference series, produced by Unwired Ventures Ltd (part of UnGroup); the most recent confirmed edition, WORKTECH25 Auckland, was a one-day conference held on Tuesday 5 August 2025 from 09:00 to 17:00 at B:HIVE, Smales Farm in Takapuna. As of publication the organiser has not confirmed a 2026 Auckland date: its published WORKTECH26 Events Calendar 2026 lists cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, London and Amsterdam but does not include Auckland, and no dedicated WORKTECH26 Auckland event page exists on worktechevents.com. The "5 August 2026" date held in the directory could not be verified against any organiser or aggregator source and appears to mirror the 2025 edition's date; readers should treat a 2026 Auckland event as unconfirmed pending an official listing.
