ACFE Christchurch July Event - Deconstructing the Porter case: Insights from every angle

EVENT DETAILS:

• When: 24 July 2025, 4:30pm
• Where: Deloitte, Christchurch

Jennifer Porter, a Christchurch woman, was founder, chief executive and a majority shareholder of tech company Create Prime Limited. In 2021, Porter misappropriated $215,000 entrusted to her by an investor, redirecting the funds to her personal account under false pretenses of a bank account restructuring. Despite assurances, the money was spent on personal expenses like credit card payments and home improvements, rather than company needs. Porter's actions led to significant financial distress for investors and the company was ultimately removed from the Companies Register.

We are delighted to have four key individuals involved in the case present to us, providing a multi-lens view:

• Graeme McGlinn - Forensic Accountant
• Michael Freeman - Detective Sergeant
• Sean Mallett - Crown Prosecutor
• Helen Shorthouse - Victim of the loss/Chair of the Board for Create Prime Limited

We are pleased to be able to offer this event as both online and in person.

This event starts from 4.30pm with networking and nibbles with the presentation to commence at 5pm. For online attendees, the presentation will run approximately between 5pm and 5.45pm.

We intend this event to be interactive and encourage you to ask questions along the way and time will be allowed for Q&A at the end of the presentation.

We look forward to welcoming you to what will be a very interesting and informative event.
