New Zealand’s relative isolation from the rest of the world and a pioneering culture have led to significant contributions to the world’s telecommunication and electronics technologies.
The quality of its design and manufacture mean that New Zealand has over the years carved a reputation as a customer focused, innovative and flexible telecommunications and electronics supplier.
New Zealand’s international competitive advantage in these fields also stems from the development of a leading wireless communications and radio-based mobile communications infrastructure, flexibility to customise solutions and take on relatively small contracts, small but cost-effective production runs in niche markets, a high level of design and applied technology to produce customised solutions and commitment to quality and flexible production processes.
