Helping NZ Grow in Canada

Join us to hear from the Te Taurapa Tūhono | New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE) Canadian team. Trade Commissioner and Consul General, Matt Ritchie, will be joined by Canadian Beachhead Advisor Brett Halliday and AUT alumna Sasja Smit, Business Development Manager.

The panel will discuss the support provided to NZ exporters at a localised level to help them grow bigger, better, faster. Canada and New Zealand are close friends and natural partners, and NZTE works closely with local business leaders and industry experts to build the market growth capability. The team will discuss how this is done and share some insights from a brand that has done it successfully, but not without some key learnings along the way.
