NZTE UK Beachhead - The Postscript


View of London from NZ House

On Tuesday, I presented Pingar to the NZTE Beachhead UK Advisory Board at NZ House, as planned. The presentation went well - I think - and the good news is that I am meeting up with individual Board members to discuss the opportunity before I leave these shores.

Note to Self: Speak to Lionel about the formal Beachheads Application Form!

It was good to meet Stuart Wilson of Modica who are based in Auckland. Modica Group's convergent media activities cover creative advertising, web development, mobile application development, mobile content, as well as a range of infrastructure services from ISP services and hosting, to mobile application hosting and gateway provisioning. Like me, Stuart was in the UK to look at opportunities for his business. The UK Beachhead Advisory Board is a great place to start. And a great way for NZ businesses to meet and share their experiences of this major offshore market.
