India NZ Business Council to host annual summit on International Education
INZBC has announced its fourth annual summit, with a spotlight on education and technology, to be held at Pullman Hotel, Auckland on 4 August 2017.
More than 200 delegates are expected to attend the high-intensity event focusing on the international education industry with comprehensive insights from policymakers. The summit will witness delegates from across New Zealand and India to discuss in depth the scope of Edu-Tech industry in both the countries.
The strategic partners of the Edu-Tech summit 2017 are Wellington Institute of Technology & Whitireia Community Polytechnic and Education New Zealand.
INZBC has signed an MOU with FICCI (Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry), which is the largest and oldest apex business organisation in India. FICCI plays a leading role in policy debates that are at the forefront of social, economic and political change.
Opening new doors for businesses, the summit will touch upon areas like education industry solution providers, listen to policymakers’ perspectives on learning and innovation priorities, Edu-Tech start-up firms from India and New Zealand, exposure to global best practices, explore collaborations with domestic/foreign partners, collaboration of education with Indian and NZ education providers, besides other topics.
For the past few years, India New Zealand Business Council has been successful in bringing together networks of business and organisations including key companies and policymakers that are interested in developing trade between India and New Zealand. The focus of the summit this year is Edu-Tech, which is particularly relevant to both countries and is in areas such as education, skill and technology with great potential for collaborations.
Emphasising on the reason for putting the spotlight on education and technology, INZBC board member Wenceslaus Anthony said, “International education is New Zealand’s fifth largest export industry, with a goal to achieve $5 billion economic value by 2025. Attending this summit will not only equip attendees with knowledge on opportunities in Edu-Tech sector but also help to get connected with excellent speakers and business community in the sphere.”
This time around the focus will be on knowledge, skill and technology industry.
Knowledge
The education industry has been the key factor for trade between India and New Zealand. India is New Zealand’s second-largest and fastest-growing source country for international students. Post-study opportunities continue to be in high demand as Indian students seek pathways for employment and migration. New Zealand’s Private Training Establishments (PTEs) attract the largest number of Indian students, driven largely by migration pathways.
Skill
India has launched an initiative called Skill India, to empower the youth of India with skill sets which make them more employable and more productive in their work environment. The National Skill Mission is chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself. There will be an incoming delegation from the skills industry of India, to highlight this sector.
Technology
Technology is not only fuelling major business transformation across industries, but is also changing how technology enterprises sell their products and services, operate, and plan for future growth. Technology is the backbone of the digital economy. The rate of change and the level of disruption driven by modern technology are exponential. As India looks to increase its Edu-Tech output, there is great need—and a growing market— for sophisticated mechanised tools and equipment. There is a significant opportunity for Kiwi businesses to get access to networks of business from India. The event is open to the public and will take place from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Pullman Hotel, Auckland.
When: Friday, 4th August 2017.
Where: The Pullman Hotel, Auckland.
