Performance Under Pressure is about cultivating the mindset of an exceptional Kiwi founder — one capable of building a globally transformative company from Aotearoa. In this session, you’ll hear from world-renowned performance psychiatrist Dr Ceri Evans on developing the mental resilience, clarity, and confidence required to lead at pace, under pressure, and through complexity on the path to international scale.

Ceri’s hands-on experience includes extended periods with Mercedes Formula 1, Arsenal FC, the Brooklyn Nets, and the All Blacks, where he now serves as Head of Leadership and Mental Performance. He has also worked with Olympic medalists and other elite performers across high-stakes arenas. Now, he brings his playbook to founders navigating the pressures of global ambition.

This is a rare chance to gain insight in an intimate setting and to connect with other founders on similar journeys.
