The briefing on Cook Islands attracted 42 participants. The main speakers were David Dewar NZ Trade Commissioner for the Pacific, Gareth Coleman, ANZ Bank's Head of Trade and Supply Chain for NZ and the Pacific, Bernadette Shaw, ANZ's Country Manager, Cook Islands.

The briefing covered a wide area of NZ/ Cook Islands trade prospects and lasted 57 minutes.

A poll that followed the briefing indicated that all participants found the briefing useful.

We plan to hold further briefings for other Pacific countries soon. Further, PEN is planning a trade mission to the Cooks in July. If this is of interest to readers please let us know.
