Henry Lawson

Event and Membership

Henry joined Canterbury Tech in March 2024 as the Events and Membership Coordinator. TechTuesdays and the membership database are where he calls home. For any and all of your membership enquiries – ask Henry!

With a background in membership organisations, event management, and a stint in a satellite technology start up, he is well placed to wear a range of hats in helping Canterbury Tech grow into the future.
