Our sponsors
Our Principal Sponsors make an extremely valuable contribution to our ability to provide a range of services to our members and the wider sector.
We would like to acknowledge and thank the following sponsors for that continued support. These organisations are key players in local government and their sponsorship shows their commitment to helping us and the sector advance its goals for New Zealand communities.
Simpson Grierson
Principal Sponsor, Simpson Grierson is one of New Zealand’s leading commercial law firms, and also one of the largest. The firm is considered the foremost legal adviser to local authorities. Its expertise in local government processes and projects is invaluable to Taituarā.
Simpson Grierson has the largest public law practice of any law firm in New Zealand. But what really sets it apart are the legal specialists who operate within it. No other group has the scope of knowledge on the range of issues faced by local government. They are the indisputable market leaders in environmental law and resource management. Their public law specialists have accumulated decades of experience acting for a large local authority client base and assisting them in their dealings with central government. This experience has also been noted by government departments and agencies, who have asked them to participate in legislative drafting and to work with those responsible for shaping or reforming policy.
