OUR 2025 KEYNOTE SPEAKER WAS...

Zion Armstrong

From West Auckland to the World Stage. Zion's incredible journey began with a sprint away from the police in West Auckland, igniting an athletics career that led him to the Commonwealth Games.

But that was just the beginning of his remarkable ascent. In his early 20s, Zion became the head of footwear at Adidas NZ, demonstrating his extraordinary talent in the world of sports retail.

Climbing the corporate ladder, he travelled to HQ in Germany, before honing his leadership skills in Asia before he reached the pinnacle as the president of Adidas North America. Under his leadership, the team achieved a record $US6 billion in annual profit, marking a significant milestone in the company's history.

Attendees joined Zion as he shared his experience leading businesses through change and transformation, showcasing what was possible with determination and a clear sense of purpose.

Hear From Past Attendees

Tim Meares
Director, Dawson Chartered Accountants
NSW, Australia

“The Figured Summit proved a wonderful opportunity to meet with other likeminded businesses at the forefront of providing agricultural advisory services to farming clients who value agri advisory. We have kept in touch with the Figured team and a number of other delegates who have shared their approach and assisted in our implementation of using Figured in the advisory and reporting process.”

Trudi Ballantyne
Director, Stem Rural Advisors
Te Puke, New Zealand


"The inaugural Figured Summit in 2024 was an inspirational event – all speakers offered something different from what you usually see at “accounting” conferences.

 

I came away with some practical, down-to-earth ideas that we could implement in our firm. The networking with other rural professionals was invaluable."

Pete Debus
Director, PrincipleFocus
NSW, Australia

"PrincipleFocus had three team members at the 2024 Figured Summit in Auckland - a considerable investment coming from Dubbo, New South Wales, but thoroughly worth it! The opportunity to learn from others, network and innovate was simply extraordinary.

 

We gained a number of important insights, positively impacting our business thinking. It was also a fabulous opportunity to meet other advisers and further build relationships with the Figured team."
