The Gay Auckland Business Association has voted to change its name to Rainbow Auckland following an overwhelming vote in favour of the decision at the recent AGM. 47 members of GABA voted in favour of the change, with just five members wishing to keep the current name. The name change will be made official on 6 July and discussions are still underway to decide whether the GABA Charitable Trust will follow with a change. GABA says “The main objective of the change is to more accurately portray GABA’s place and purpose within the wider LGBTI community. “A new logo and branding is currently under development which will follow the three pillars of GABA’s constitution being ‘to connect business, professionals, and our communities’.”
