Abstract

The 34th America’s Cup Regatta delivered a range of business benefits for the New Zealand economy, according to two evaluation reports – an independent evaluation of the Government’s investment in Emirates Team New Zealand and an evaluation of Trade and Enterprise’s leverage programme in San Francisco.

The New Zealand Inc. leveraging programme at the 34th America’s Cup in San Francisco led by New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE) achieved ground breaking exposure for New Zealand, its sectors, companies, products and services; its position as a relevant and exciting country to live in, to work in, to invest in and to visit.

The government investment in Emirates Team New Zealand gave New Zealand Inc. a platform and a context for business, to tell the New Zealand Story and to showcase New Zealand capability, design and innovation. The focused and committed attitude of Emirates Team New Zealand throughout the regatta was highly regarded by locals, media and visitors, and worked well as a metaphor for how New Zealand does business – with open-hearted and determined character, constant innovation, and integrity, application and good humour. This, combined with New Zealand leading the technology race in the AC72 class, ensured New Zealand held a prominent position in San Francisco in 2013.
