South East Asia Customised Market Readiness Programme

Are you a NZ manufacturing firm looking to engage with the Southeast Asia region?

In partnership with ExportNZ, the Southeast Asia Centre of Asia-Pacific Excellence has designed a Market Readiness Programme for businesses across New Zealand.

This one-day workshop focuses on manufacturing businesses wanting to grow internationally and provides insights about the challenges and opportunities Southeast Asia offers.

The workshop is interactive and allows you to connect to other owner-managers of NZ manufacturing firms, discuss how recent trends might affect your business and explore how to overcome challenges to realise growth.

During the workshop, you will learn about technological upgrading and innovation ecosystems, augmenting the business model to suit the SEA market, managing your IP, and success strategies for manufacturing firms engaging with SEA.
