About Us
Overview
Our Vision
The New Zealand-Ukraine Business Association (NZUBA) envisions a robust, enduring partnership that fosters economic growth and mutual prosperity for New Zealand and Ukraine. We serve as a strategic, reliable platform for advancing and deepening trade and economic relations between our two countries.
Our Mission
Established in 2023, with the support of the Ukrainian Ambassador to Australia and New Zealand, our association is dedicated to empowering businesses, strengthening networks, and fostering sustainable, effective bilateral relationships. As the premier platform for facilitating trade, investment, and collaboration, we connect businesses, organisations, and individuals who are keen to explore the business and trade opportunities both nations have to offer.
What We Offer
Our role extends beyond just connecting organisations; we unlock avenues for mutual growth by showcasing each country’s unique strengths:
-
Ukraine offers a wealth of opportunities as it embarks on a significant reconstruction phase poised to attract billions in investments. Alongside its fertile agricultural sector and rich natural resources, Ukraine boasts a highly educated workforce and a rapidly growing IT sector. Positioned as a gateway to Europe and Eurasia, it presents strategic and innovative avenues for New Zealand businesses looking to engage in this dynamic market.
-
New Zealand provides a dynamic market for Ukrainian companies looking to bring their expertise, especially in technology and innovation, into an economy that values agility and sustainability. New Zealand’s robust agricultural and energy sectors and innovative business landscape offer Ukrainian companies a promising environment for expansion.
Our Approach
Through targeted networking events, conferences, and hands-on workshops, we bridge understanding of the political, economic, and legislative landscapes of both nations. We work closely with both Ukraine and New Zealand governments and the private sector, along with international Ukraine-focused business associations, to identify and facilitate connections and information sharing to enable mutual success.
Why Join Us?
The New Zealand Ukraine Business Association membership provides access to a vibrant community, essential resources, and tailored advisory.
