Fairfax Media New Zealand Business Hall of Fame
Established in 1994 by the Enterprise New Zealand Trust, the Fairfax Media New Zealand Business Hall of Fame recognises and celebrates individuals who, through enterprise, have made a significant contribution to the economic and social development of New Zealand. Laureates are admitted to the Hall by the Governor-General at an annual dinner.

Each laureate has a story of enterprise, hard work and success. Most have contributed generously to their communities. A laureate's inclusion in this Hall is a celebration of his or her success and an inspiration for others to follow. The Hall itself is situated at the Owen G Glenn building in the University of Auckland Business School.
