Possible Futures for the Company and for Corporate Law

In 2019, for the first time the Auckland Law School from the University of Auckland hosted the CLTA conference in New Zealand. The annual 3 day conference took place from Sunday 3 to Tuesday 5 February. Professor Susan Watson was the convenor. There were around 70 delegates that attended from Australia, New Zealand and further afield. The theme of the 2019 conference was Possible Futures for the Company and Company Law.

The plenary programme included a keynote address from Professor Luca Enriques of Oxford University, a keynote address from Justice Susan Glazebrook, a teaching session on the longitudinal study of law students carried out at Canterbury University led by Professor Lynne Taylor and Associate Professor John Caldwell, and a Panel convened by Brian Tunui on Maori Corporate Governance. There were also five parallel sessions over three days with papers from attending delegates.
