Here's what they had so say about the conference and what they are looking forward to at the 2026 meeting. [Jessie Malcolm](https://moranlaw.co/jessie-malcolm-moranlaw) After going to INTA, I’m always reminded of how important industry relationships are, as well as how cool it is to be able to meet so many people from different parts of the world. My key highlights from San Diego were enjoying the California sunset and eating lots of tacos! ![](https://moranlaw.co/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-1.png?width=576&height=432&name=image-png-1.png) [Scott Moran](https://moranlaw.co/scott-moran-moranlaw) This was my most enjoyable INTA Annual Meeting yet – despite having to skip a fair bit of the week! I arrived late after celebrating my son’s graduation (a very proud moment), missed all the late-night events while managing new matters back home, and I didn’t make it to the annual football tournament (still gutted). But somehow, INTA San Diego 2025 was my favourite yet, because: It was the first time I attended as part of a MoranLaw delegation of four! Jessie, Leighton and John were all on fire and the buzz around our firm’s growth and momentum opened more doors than ever before! We had generous feedback on our marketing and newsletter which was truly appreciated and I loved answering questions about and sharing stories of our growth over the past 12 months. I was grateful for the support of the MoranLaw team back in the office managing a surge of new work last week - thank you to our very patient clients. It was so good catching up with friends old and new - although we did miss those friends in San Diego we did not get the opportunity to catch up with.  ![](https://moranlaw.co/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-2.png?width=576&height=432&name=image-png-2.png) [John Hackett](https://moranlaw.co/john-hackett-moranlaw) For me, the highlight was being re-connected with all my many overseas friends and contacts after having been away from the INTA meetings for six years. I found re-connecting easy and a lot of fun. San Diego, as a venue, has always been a great city for a convention as it's easy to get around and generally great weather.  Next year's meeting will be in London - a great city, but we'll see how it works logistically with 10-12,000 conference attendees trying to get to places and to arrange meetings. I'm certainly looking forward to the challenge! ![](https://moranlaw.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Jessie%20Inta%203-jpg.jpeg?width=576&height=432&name=Jessie%20Inta%203-jpg.jpeg)   Share on: [Share on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://moranlaw.co/blog/inta-annual-meeting-san-diego-2025-roundup) [Share on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://moranlaw.co/blog/inta-annual-meeting-san-diego-2025-roundup) Tags: [Partnerships and Community](https://moranlaw.co/blog/tag/partnerships-and-community) You may also like ![](https://moranlaw.co/hs-fs/hubfs/ML%20INTA%20reception.jpeg?width=630&name=ML%20INTA%20reception.jpeg) May 25, 2026, 2:28:54 PM NZST MoranLaw 2026 INTA Highlights ![](https://moranlaw.co/hs-fs/hubfs/AI-Generated%20Media/Images/A%20pale%20blue%20background%20Against%20the%20background%205%20illustrated%20silhouettes%20One%20silhouette%20is%20red%20the%20other%20four%20are%20navy%20blue-4.jpeg?width=630&name=A%20pale%20blue%20background%20Against%20the%20background%205%20illustrated%20silhouettes%20One%20silhouette%20is%20red%20the%20other%20four%20are%20navy%20blue-4.jpeg) July 11, 2025, 9:01:21 AM NZST Incorporated Society  Re-registration - Member Support Issues ![](https://moranlaw.co/hs-fs/hubfs/AI-Generated%20Media/Images/Governance%20Review%20Deed%20on%20Laptop%20with%20Autumn%20View.png?width=630&name=Governance%20Review%20Deed%20on%20Laptop%20with%20Autumn%20View.png) July 29, 2026, 3:22:28 PM NZST October 2026 is approaching: has your charity completed its governance review? ### SPECIALIST AREAS [Intellectual Property](https://moranlaw.co/protecting-intellectual-property) [Commercial and Corporate Law](https://moranlaw.co/commercial-and-corporate) [For Families](https://moranlaw.co/elevated-trust-management) [Elevated Trust Management](https://moranlaw.co/for-families) [Not-For-Profits](https://moranlaw.co/not-for-profits) [Privacy, Cyber, and Data Security](https://moranlaw.co/privacy-cyber-and-data-security) ### The Team - [Scott Moran](https://moranlaw.co/scott-moran-moranlaw) - [Amanda Griffiths](https://moranlaw.co/amanda-griffiths-moranlaw) - [Louisa Joblin](https://moranlaw.co/louisa-joblin-moranlaw) - [Jessie Malcolm](https://moranlaw.co/jessie-malcolm-moranlaw) - [Ffion Merchant-Williams](https://moranlaw.co/ffion-merchant-williams-moranlaw) - [John Hackett](https://moranlaw.co/john-hackett-moranlaw) - [Chelcie Kite](https://moranlaw.co/chelcie-kite-moranlaw) - [Venetia McInman](https://moranlaw.co/venetia-mcinman-moranlaw) - [Fergielyn Catayoc](https://moranlaw.co/fergielyn-catayoc-moranlaw) - [Lucas d’Arbois de Jubainville](https://moranlaw.co/lucas-darbois-de-jubainville-moranlaw) - [Kimberley Will](https://moranlaw.co/kimberley-will-moranlaw) - [Shamara Polliack](https://moranlaw.co/shamara-polliack-moranlaw) - [Tracey Lucas](https://moranlaw.co/tracey-lucas-moranlaw) - [Kathy Hunter](https://moranlaw.co/kathy-hunter-moranlaw) - [Sara Barnes](https://moranlaw.co/sara-barnes-moranlaw) - [Rebecca Evans](https://moranlaw.co/rebecca-evans-moranlaw) - [Flora Dryburgh](https://moranlaw.co/flora-dryburgh-moranlaw) - [Jacky Simperingham](https://moranlaw.co/jacky-simperingham-moranlaw) - [Tom Winfield](https://moranlaw.co/tom-winfield-moranlaw) ### Quick Links - [Contact Us](https://moranlaw.co/contact) - [About Us](https://moranlaw.co/about) - [Careers](https://moranlaw.co/careers) - [Privacy Policy](https://moranlaw.co/privacy-policy) - [Terms](https://moranlaw.co/terms-of-engagement) - [Our Blog](https://moranlaw.co/blog) © MoranLaw Limited 2024 [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/moranlaw) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/moranlawnzau/) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61557642282289) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "MoranLaw Team", "url" : "https://moranlaw.co/blog/author/moranlaw-team" }, "dateModified" : "2026-09-17T00:12:25.371Z", "datePublished" : "2025-05-29T22:00:00.000Z", "headline" : "INTA Annual Meeting San Diego 2025 - Roundup", "image" : [ "https://moranlaw.co/hubfs/INTA%20San%20Diego-1-1.jpeg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://moranlaw.co/blog/inta-annual-meeting-san-diego-2025-roundup", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://moranlaw.co/hubfs/RGB-MoranLaw-logo-primary-BlueAndGreen-2.png" }, "name" : "Moran Law" } } ```
