2009 ALGIM Conference
The 29th Annual ALGIM Conference was held from the 22nd to the 25th November 2009 at the Wairakei Resort.

Technology creates opportunities to connect communities. It opens up a world of new information, as well as social, educational and financial opportunities. The 2009 Annual ALGIM Conference delivered these ever-expanding possibilities and offered participants:
- The national Innovation Awards and groundbreaking New Zealand council case studies
- An unparalleled standard of national and international speakers, including Dame Susan Devoy, Olympic Gold medallist Steven Bradbury and one of the founding Radar bloggers, Nat Torkington
- Amazing presentations on a wide range of relevant subjects such as the Virgin Space Programme, social media, professional certification, GIS, e-democracy and important broadband/internet developments
- Findings from ALGIM research projects
- Technical training programmes on design of virtual environments and WAN optimisation
- The Great Debate: Cloud Computing Unmasked – The Sky’s the Limit!
- Over 50 exhibitors
- Excellent networking, fun activities and great entertainment!
The Annual ALGIM Conference has been heralded by attendees as the best event for interacting and obtaining knowledge, and this year it continued to deliver outstanding value.
