If you’re looking for an exceptional lifestyle and fresh investment opportunities, New Zealand can provide you with both.  New policies for business migrants make New Zealand more attractive and more accessible than ever - for business people and entrepreneurs who can make a contribution to our economy.

Along with these new polices, the Government is also investing $7.5 billion in improving New Zealand’s infrastructure over the next five years to boost productivity and unlock the country’s economic potential.

These developments will enhance changes over the past decade which have seen a dramatic move in New Zealand towards a more sophisticated, free market economy that competes globally.

Continual growth has broadened and deepened the technological capabilities of the industrial sector and given business the impetus to invest in new technology and staff in order to compete domestically and off-shore.  Some of our more progressive industries include information and communications technology, tourism, film and special effects production, biotechnology, agricultural research and wood-based technology.

Small businesses are especially notable in New Zealand. The exciting thing about small businesses in New Zealand is that they think like big businesses. And produce big ideas. This innovation has inspired thousands of New Zealand entrepreneurs to set up small businesses and succeed.

Their dynamic ideas have helped propel New Zealand to rank 20th (out of 134 countries) in the World Economic Forums Global Competitiveness Report 2009-2010.

New Zealand’s free market philosophy, sound economic outlook and stable business environment, coupled with a highly educated and multi-talented workforce, mean the opportunities and rewards for business are immense.
