Reforms webinars

Earlier this year, the Prime Minister announced the most significant changes to our science, innovation and technology system in more than 30 years.

Since the announcement, we have been working collaboratively with the sector to shape the science organisations and system of the future. We will be holding quarterly webinars to discuss these changes.

May 2025 webinar recording available

Our first programme-level webinar took place on 14 May 2025. In this session, we expanded on the announced changes, provided an overview of the science reforms, and discussed recent government announcements.

Speakers included:

  • Iain Cossar – Programme Director, Science System Reforms, MBIE
  • Sue Bidrose – Chief Executive, AgResearch
  • Chelydra Percy – Chief Executive, GNS Science
