Commentary
The China Council for the Promotion of International Trade organized over 150 entrepreneurs to visit the United States this time, and the number of American participants exceeded expectations by double, indicating that American companies' interest in Chinese innovation and supply chain capabilities is shifting from 'buying products' to 'learning capabilities. ' For small and medium-sized enterprises in New Zealand that are deeply engaged in the global market, this change sends at least two signals: First, the asset-light models of Chinese companies, such as technology licensing and system design, are becoming new ways to reduce the impact of tariffs. New Zealand importers can try to shift from finished product procurement to introducing Chinese technology solutions, completing customized production locally, and shortening supply chain response cycles.
Second, American companies' concerns are concentrated on policy uncertainty, and the trend of supply chain diversification is still strengthening. As a member of CPTPP and RCEP, New Zealand has a relatively neutral trade position and can leverage its professional service value in compliance consulting, cross-border testing, and small-batch manufacturing. China has the world's most complete industrial system, and its rapid iteration capability is precisely the resource needed for product validation of small New Zealand businesses.
Tan Sen mentioned that on the day of the exchange meeting, American companies were still calling to register, reflecting that the demand for offline matchmaking is real and strong, which provides cross-border matchmaking space for New Zealand professional service institutions.
