Pacific New Zealand Fisheries Forum: Hand in Hand, Investing Beyond Our Shores

Industry leaders from across the Pacific and New Zealand are set to come together for a one-day fisheries forum to discuss partnership opportunities for the future. The event is being presented by the Pacific Cooperation Foundation in association with the Pacific Islands’ Tuna Industry Association (PITIA). Representatives from the 14 Pacific Islands’ Forum member countries will be at the conference, hoping to develop business networks with companies that work within New Zealand’s fishing industry. The programme will include a number of industry leader panels covering topics such as future challenges for the sector, potential product and partnership opportunities, gaining access to quality trained people and funding. Opportunities for the Pacific and New Zealand working together to develop new markets in Asia will also be discussed.
