FORWARD BY DESIGN

SITE ANZ has listened, learned, and is now presenting actionable solutions co-designed with the community to move the incentive travel industry forward

As SITE Australia & New Zealand’s flagship event, this year’s conference brings a fresh perspective on how we work together to drive meaningful outcomes for clients, teams, and our industry. With a focus on connection, collaboration, and collective momentum, we’ll explore what’s next – and how we can shape it together.

A note from our President

Tanya Wick

President, SITE Australia & New Zealand

Incentive travel across Australia and New Zealand is at a pivotal moment. Our industry has told us what matters most: delivering value, pairing creativity with commercial rigour, strengthening capability, and elevating incentive travel as a strategic tool that drives real business performance.

In 2026, Incentivise Live moves us from conversation into action. Guided by our theme Forward by Design, the conference will share practical solutions shaped with our community to strengthen our sector and elevate the role of incentive travel.

As part of the global SITE community, we bring international research, education and insights to the conversation alongside practical tools, meaningful connections and a dose of inspiration. Whether you are a SITE member or not, if you work in business events or incentive travel, you’ll leave with ideas and confidence to create greater impact.
