Rewriting the playbook: how Kiwi businesses can thrive in a changing world

The conditions for growing New Zealand businesses are changing. Four major trends are reshaping global opportunities: the emergence of new industries and global cities, rising trade and geopolitical tensions, the declining relevance of location for entrepreneurship and the accelerating impact of digitalisation and AI.

Join Dr Antje Fiedler as she explores how playbooks are evolving in response to these shifts. She will discuss how New Zealand entrepreneurs are well-positioned to navigate this changing landscape, with lower relative costs for pivoting to new markets and access to a diverse population with rich cultural knowledge. Digitalisation and AI offer powerful tools to access and integrate knowledge in new ways, but also challenge traditional forms of business growth and stakeholder engagement; they make place less relevant. Together, these forces open new possibilities for growth and the emergence of a more entrepreneurial society.
