ASEAN NEW ZEALAND BUSINESS COUNCIL
One pathway to 10 South East Asian markets - What we do
ANZBC is a member based business council connecting New Zealand businesses with ASEAN trading partners. It is an organisation, which advocates their concerns and provides a network to seek contacts, learn about the markets and be assisted in many other ways in its members’ ASEAN business efforts.
The ANZBC is the Secretariat for the ASEAN Business Alliance (see below), a network of all New Zealand Chamber of Commerce in the ASEAN region. The ABA provides its members real-time connections in market, information on the ground and business to business market knowledge.
The ANZBC is also New Zealand's representative at the ASEAN Business Advisory Council (ABAC) meetings. ABAC Working Group meetings are run by business experts throughout the year, with reports sent to Ministers for their consideration and action. New Zealand is active in a number of working groups; NTB, Trade Facilitation, Customs, Heath-care and more.
The ANZBC holds regular events to inform and connect our stakeholders (at least monthly), plus our two signature events annually the ASEAN Forum (held in NZ) and the ASEAN Business Alliance Conference (held in the ASEAN region).
Well connected with business and government agencies in New Zealand and ASEAN, ANZBC provides crucial linkages and information. It is the foremost network for anyone with ASEAN business aspirations.
