We are thrilled to announce that the EMA (Employers and Manufacturers Association) has successfully secured NZD 36 million in funding to further bolster our commitment to supporting New Zealand’s business community. As the nation's largest business association, we have been dedicating ourselves for over 135 years to empowering businesses through invaluable resources such as free employment advice, quarterly market briefings, comprehensive law guides, and tailored business training programs. This significant funding will enable us to expand our services and enhance our offerings, ensuring that our members stay ahead of the latest workplace changes and legal responsibilities that could impact their operations.
The funds will specifically focus on developing innovative tools and resources that drive growth and efficiency among New Zealand’s businesses while providing robust educational programs that equip employers with the knowledge they need to navigate a rapidly changing economic landscape. Additionally, we plan to invest in enhancing our export opportunities, which is crucial for companies looking to take their operations global. With this fresh capital, the EMA is poised to elevate the support we provide to our members, helping them mitigate legal issues and costs while simultaneously contributing to the growth of the New Zealand economy. We believe that a thriving business environment is foundational to our nation’s prosperity, and we are excited to step into this new chapter of growth and innovation in service to our members and the broader business community.
