Connecting businesses to growth and export opportunities

Shirley van Waveren

What you can expect


I help businesses grow, develop and turn opportunities into practical, commercial outcomes.

I bring extensive commercial experience, deep export and international business knowledge, a strong New Zealand business network and many years of working with businesses, industry organisations and government.

Practical business support


A large part of business is about people and relationships.

I help organisations build strong stakeholder relationships, make useful connections and bring the right people together to create opportunities and get things moving.

Relationships that create value


My approach is practical and outcomes-focused. I get to the heart of what needs to happen, bring the right people together and help turn ideas and opportunities into action.
