Firm internationalisation
[ Last Updated 17 May 2007 ]
We will work with New Zealand Trade and Enterprise and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade to further develop and help implement policy focused on:
- better-tailored support for firms who wish to develop their international operations in relation to management, exporting, technology, and other capability
- more integrated and sophisticated in-market support for these firms
- experience-based international management education for business executives to complement these initiatives, and shorten the learning period for internationalising firms
- continuing support for more domestically-focused firms to enhance their productivity and contribution to the economy
- intensive engagement with a selection of large firms that are experienced international operators – this engagement will focus on enhancing their growth, and making linkages between them and smaller firms.
This work will entail an increased focus on helping firms to grow rapidly through exploitation of global market niches, and using Government's significant international presence to operate successfully in global markets. It will also create more opportunities for New Zealand's firms to learn from other firms how to operate successfully in global markets.
