Dear <<First Name>>,

Greetings from INZBC!

I trust you and your family are well. International travel has finally opened up, and with restrictions easing slowly but surely, we can all look forward to resume a normal business and social life in the near future.

We are thrilled to announce our latest strategic partnership with Bank of New Zealand. We thank the team at BNZ for their confidence and faith in us, and look forward to a successful work relationship. We would also like to thank our other new partners, Zespri, New Zealand Airline Academy and MartinJenkins.

We recently had the honour of partnering with The Indian High Commission and Wellington Chamber of Commerce, to organise a panel discussion on 'Women in Business' - New horizons and old challenges. This virtual event saw some very amazing, successful women share their inspiring stories and supporting others in their journey. Below are the videos and highlights of the event.

In this newsletter, we have also shared the video from our last online event on India's Budget highlights, and other industry news from India and New Zealand.


Thanks & Regards,


Earl Rattray
Chair, INZBC
