Action Asia Business
Our Action Asia Business Grants programme provides support for organisations involved in projects that seek to increase New Zealanders’ capacity to do business in Asia. Asia:NZ provides grants of up to $10,000 for a wide range of business projects including research, internships, and support for conferences and seminars.
