-
Georgina Beyer - A Wellington region where the future will be valued through combined power, dispatching parochialism.
-
Dr Michelle Dickinson - When we think of cities, we think about buildings and infrastructure, but the heart of a city it it's people. What if Wellington could create the city with the strongest heart beat, powered not by bureaucrats but by the people who know it best?
-
Susan Freeman-Greene - Imagine a world where engineering and the arts are inextricably mingled, unleashing our imaginations and igniting innovation. What would Wellington look like if we fired up our creative capital with a spectacular mash up of engineering, science and the arts?
-
Eric Janssen - Editor - MJGA - Make Journalism Great Again. Why fake news needs to be trumped.

Panel Discussion 1: ‘Impossible Promises, Inspiration into Action’, working in table groups
-
Nick Morrison - Imagine a city with no waste and perfectly clean streets. Imagine a city that feeds itself on an abundance of cheap organic produce, grown in the city. And imagine a city with healthy, connected, communities free of diet-related illnesses living in harmony with the natural world.
-
Nick Kapica - Pathways through the impossible with design thinking: How do we think big and dream up ideas for a better future city? How do we identify and navigate the hurdles to shift impossible dreams into feasible ideas?
-
Benjamin Johnston - I dream of a truly inclusive city where our dinner tables and lives are shared with those who are vastly different to us. Where those on the margins of our communities are not problems to solve, but friends to know.
-
Melissa Clark-Reynolds - Last year Melissa pitched the idea of Wellington becoming a Child friendly City - somewhere where there wild places to roam and play; bike lanes; and every kid could walk to the dairy and back for an ice cream without an adult in complete safety. Rotary and WCC took up the challenge and Melissa is back with an update.

-
Kim Workman - Imagine a city that not only knows how to say sorry, it knows what to say (or do) after that.
-
Fraser Callaway - Design has the power to positively change Wellington, and the world. Let’s unleash it together.
-
Peter McKenzie - Wellington is beautiful, exciting and full of interesting places - but what makes it our home are the people. Yet too often we feel unable to connect with people outside our close groups and silos. We need to build a Wellington where we can connect with everyone.
-
Jaye Glam Morgan - I will be bringing back fashion to the capital because that’s where it belongs.

Sum-up from the Chair, Roger Blakeley
