We work closely with New Zealand firms to help them grow their international business. Here’s what some of them have said about the value of that engagement.
“NZTE approached us about Better by Design and we were sold on the idea that the most sustainable and interesting brands in the world are design-led companies.”
Malcolm Rands, Chief Executive

"We would not be able to overcome barriers of various languages and cultures in market like Asia Pacific nor be nearly so effective as we have been without fantastic staff and infrastructure that you have in place in countries like India, Korea, Taiwan, China and Japan. We are constantly amazed with their ability, commitment and efficiency. What a great crew you have."
Zlatko Staka

“We always intended to be an export company. NZTE support has enabled us to reach our goals far quicker than we would have.”
Jeff Robbins, Managing Director
Vesper Marine
“With a specialist industry like ours, many of the usual market development strategies aren’t appropriate. The funding NZTE has provided, and the doors their staff have been able to open, have been invaluable.”
Christian Walsh, Marketing Manager
Hamilton Jet
“I just wanted to express our gratitude for the recent Strategy Session that you ran as part of our involvement in the Beachheads program. This session as well as the Governance workshop held earlier, have really helped to provide practical advice, challenge our thinking and assist us to move forward with greater confidence.”
Russell Brebner, COO
Unlimited Realities
“Our relationship with NZTE is adding lots of value. We’ve grown up and so have they and the programmes they have developed in the last decade are delivering excellent support for businesses. Continual improvement by us and them is leading to real results.”
