The much-anticipated TRENZ Connect Online events took place in April 2022. The purpose of the events was to connect New Zealand’s international trade-ready tourism businesses with international buyers.

Over the two events, there were 4668 appointments between 264 New Zealand tourism operators and 319 international buyers. This resulted in an astonishing 145,134 minutes of talk time. 

Events and Marketing Manager Lynn Robinson says, "It was very exciting to facilitate these business discussions and help our industry start on the road to recovery. 

"The events were a huge success generating much positive feedback and excitement from participants – and, more importantly, new connections, business negotiations and bookings!"

If your business is ready to work with international trade and you missed out on these events, remember that you can still find and connect with international buyers at any time on the TRENZ Connect platform.
