The Hugo Group informs Hugo Panel members in several different ways.

Meetings
Panel members meet at least 12 times a year in both Wellington and Auckland at a working breakfast to analyse the international, economic, political, public policy and industrial environments in the light of confidential briefings from the Hugo Group experts.

Guest speakers present their views and are closely questioned. The Chatham House rule of confidentiality applies, allowing very free discussion. Speakers are senior ministers, leading opposition politicians and other policy makers. Occasionally outside experts contribute.

Occasionally additional Panel meetings are held after major events or for special guests.

Tailored in-house briefings
The Hugo Group members are available for brief consultations by phone. For an additional fee the group provides special in-house briefings for individual Panel members to add value to a board meeting or a strategic planning meeting or at a function for panel members’ clients.

Specialist research can also be arranged.

 


Written briefings
Twice a month The Hugo Group emails and posts to all Panel members its confidential written brief, Hugovision (pictured at left), giving the Group’s assessment of the economy, politics, policy, legislation and forecasts.

In addition, analyses of important developments are transmitted to Panel members the day they happen.

An annual Hugo Handbook projects ahead five years and includes a Who’s Who of the Government.
