The EU Response to COVID-19: Implications for NZ businesses

WEBINAR

​

- 13 May 2020

​

Lighthouse Europe hosted a webinar to discuss the European Union's response to the COVID-crisis and implications this could have for New Zealand businesses.

As the largest trading bloc in the world, the EU remains a strategic player on the world stage and an important trading partner for New Zealand both in terms of export and import trade. COVID-19 has created the greatest economic crisis in Europe since the Great Recession and the Sovereign Debt Crisis. The economic effects are far-reaching and could be long-lasting. NZ businesses, therefore, have an interest in learning what Europe is doing to exit this crisis and open Europe back up for business.

​

The webinar covers the actions which the European institutions are taking at the European level and in Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom.

​

At the end of this webinar participants will know:

• What policies the EU is taking to exit the economic crisis

• How the EU’s policy response will drive future growth

• How COVID has shifted the EU’s priorities

• Where the future opportunities might be for NZ business
