The Opportunity Next Door. Moreton Bay: Your Landing Pad for Australia
Australia remains New Zealand’s most accessible export market, and the City of Moreton Bay is positioning itself as the ideal landing pad for Kiwi businesses looking to expand across the Tasman. Join the Auckland Business Chamber and a visiting delegation from the City of Moreton Bay, led by Deputy Mayor Jodie Shipway, for an evening exploring the opportunities available in one of Australia’s fastest-growing regions.
Located just 20 minutes from Brisbane International Airport and 30 minutes from the Port of Brisbane, Moreton Bay offers a strategic base for New Zealand businesses seeking growth in Australia, with major investment opportunities emerging in the lead-up to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The event will also feature the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between Auckland Business Chamber and the City of Moreton Bay, creating a framework to strengthen trade, investment and business collaboration between our regions.
Hear practical market-entry insights and case studies, including the experience of a New Zealand business that has successfully established operations in Moreton Bay, alongside perspectives from organisations supporting investment, innovation and business growth across Queensland. A panel discussion, featuring Trade and Investment Queensland, Austrade, North Harbour Development, Crosslands Pipe and Precast, and Cadent AI, will explore market entry, expansion and partnership opportunities, followed by networking with members of the visiting delegation representing government, trade and investment, tourism, infrastructure, technology and advanced manufacturing sectors.
