ExportNZ helping exporters Go Global

May 6, 2015 | News

Kiwi exporters are in for a treat on Thursday next week as some of the country’s top exporters are getting together for one day of knowledge sharing at Eden Park Stadium.

As well as speakers from award-winning Kiwi companies and brands such as Magic Memories, Xero, Tegel Foods, Miraka and Hunter’s Wines, this year’s ExportNZ Go Global conference has attracted international experts from global institutions such as Stanford University and the China Construction Bank.

NZTE, AJ Park and Callaghan Innovation are also supporting the conference imparting knowledge on how to internationalise companies, how to make the best use of your intellectual property in international markets, and how to find success through innovation.

Catherine Beard, ExportNZ Executive Director, says, “We’re delighted with the calibre and variety of speakers in this year’s programme. We’ve developed this event to be one high-impact, high-value day that will inform and inspire Kiwi exporters from all sectors and of all sizes. As well as hearing the war stories from exporters who have found success on the global stage, there will be plenty of interaction and audience participation.

“Break-out sessions on innovation, R&D, intellectual property, finance and marketing strategy will give attendees the opportunity to interact with world class experts in these fields.

“The room is filling up, so any Kiwi exporters who haven’t grabbed their ticket yet need to do so if they don’t want to miss out. Just go to www.nzgoglobal.co.nz.”
