Elite6 Business Networking www.elite6.co.nz
We are a progressive and forward thinking business networking organisation that brings local businesses together each week for an hour of interactive networking.
At each meeting one member delivers a 15-minute presentation to the meeting.
Then, each person speaks for five minutes about their business while sitting at a table of six. Tables are mixed each week, so you get to meet different people. This is a major point of difference with Elite6 compared to other networking groups. Members are encouraged to meet outside the Elite6 meetings for further discussion about how their businesses might collaborate and/or refer to each other.
We also promote each business online with the Elite6 Members Directory each member has the ability to post Blogs and Events! Again this is distinctive to Elite6. Several groups meet each week in Ferrymead, Cashmere, Rolleston, Christchurch City, Tower Junction, Rangiora, Papanui, Waimakariri, Avonhead, Merivale and Sydenham with more groups springing up all the time in other areas.
We’d love to have you visit one of our groups so If you are interested in joining us Register online and one of our Facilitators will contact you!

This is just 1 of over 6,400 images taken on a walk across Mexico City. Start at Mexico City 0001 and explore the route yourself online or visit www.urbanearth.co.uk to watch the films.
URBAN EARTH is a project to (re)present our habitat by walking across some of Earth's biggest urban areas. The media distorts the way we see our world(s) with stereotypical images highlighting the most extremes of places. URBAN EARTH aims to expose what our cities really look like away from the bias and spin of commercial agendas.
URBAN EARTH: MEXICO CITY was created over three days in July 2008 and is made up of over 6,400 images... one for every 8 steps of the walk (roughly).
URBAN EARTH is a movement that anyone can join - just find an urban area and walk across it. URBAN EARTH is an opportunity for adventure, exploration, freedom, community activism and dialogue. Find out more at www.urbanearth.co.uk and join the URBAN EARTH social network.
URBAN EARTH ROUTES
Geography is more important than many people think. A random route across a city may expose many things, but an URBAN EARTH walk is special because it attempts to reveal what a city is like for the people who live in it. URBAN EARTH is not about following the tourist trail or tracking down the most extreme places... it is about finding normality.
The route was carefully designed to show the distribution of wealth within the city. For example where the poorest 20% of the population might occupy 14% of urban space, roughly 14% of the walk travels through these most deprived areas. The length of the walk is also propotionate to the size of the city. Where possible the route also travels through areas with the greatest population densities.
See the routes at www.urbanearth.co.uk
“In 2008, the world reaches an invisible but momentous milestone: For the first time in history, more than half its human population, 3.3 billion people, will be living in urban areas. By 2030, this is expected to swell to almost 5 billion. Many of the new urbanites will be poor. Their future, the future of cities in developing countries, the future of humanity itself, all depend very much on decisions made now in preparation for this growth.” STATE OF THE WORLD POPULATION REPORT 2007

Bajo el titulo China, 5 verdades que ninguna empresa debe ignorar. Madrid Network ha organizado con Herrera Zhang Consulting una jornada informativa sobre estrategias para abordar el mercado Chino.
Cada vez son más los empresarios que deciden invertir en China. De hecho, este país ya es el segundo receptor mundial de inversiones extranjeras, sólo por detrás de Estados Unidos. Su rápido crecimiento de los últimos años y sus buenas expectativas de desarrollo convierten a este mercado en uno de los más atractivos del mundo.
Andrés Herrera, en su intervención explicó que en estos momentos tenemos que cambiar el concepto empresarial si queremos tener relaciones comerciales, se ha producido un cambio de paradigma, hemos pasado de importar y demandar producto de China, ya que su fabricación podía resultar más barata, a vender productos y servicios en el mundo chino. Y para esto sólo cabe la diferenciación.
La empresa española progresa en Asia, pero necesita dedicar más recursos, aumentar su conocimiento y tener más capacidad de adaptación. En opinión de Herrera, “se invierte poco en conocimiento sobre la sociedad china, y ese conocimiento muchas veces es el factor relevante para cerrar negocios”.
La modernización del país tiene impactos políticos, económicos y tecnológicos que ninguna empresa puede ignorar. Así mismo otra realidad que no podemos ignorar es que China está por delante en aspectos clave de futuro como son movilidad, digitalización, comercio electrónico y start-ups. Herrera concluyo afirmando que: “El futuro pasa por competir o aliarse con empresas procedentes del mundo chino”.
Susanna Barquín, Subdirectora de Prodeca, explicó una experiencia en el ámbito del sector público del sector alimentario.
La Responsable de Desarrollo de Negocio de Madrid Network, destacó que la demanda de productos occidentales en China es creciente sobre todo en las grandes ciudades, pero hay que medir mucho más los riesgos al ser un mercado tan complejo. Por otra parte, animó a las empresas especialmente del sector aeronáutico y energías renovables a participar de la misión comercial que desde el Proyecto Space2iD se está organizando a China.
