Business Councils :: Auckland Chamber

Business Councils

When you’re doing business with clients or suppliers in foreign markets, collaborative relationships with the local business community are crucial to breaking down trade barriers.

We work closely with various International Business Councils to support ideas sharing, facilitate access to government officials and strengthen economic links between the Auckland business community and those overseas.
