The SB2 InitiativeThe Partnership for Global Growth
Best way to Predict the Future, is to Create it!
SB2 facilitates International Opportunities and de-risks the International
Experience for selected organisations with interests in the Science and High
Tech sectors.
Our unique business model expedites this process of market entry and
expansion through growing and economically strong Regions; this accelerates
company success in those markets.
We have developed and strategically positioned a strong partnership of
appropriate business professionals, advisors, resources and government
representatives to ensure in-market support and a safe base for our Clients.

About SB2 International Ventures
SB2 International Ventures Limited provides in-market facilities and services that
accelerate the International Readiness and Success of organizations looking to
achieve real productivity gains
These are the SB2 Expressway programs, extending and complementing Government
programmes.
This facilitation of enduring economic value will be supported by the establishment and
ongoing activities of a Centre for Excellence in International Commercialisation and
Entrepreneurship.
Through exhaustive research and hence by design, we are a Private Sector firm,
responding to the dynamic changes in today’s global economic environment confronting
Exporters, with a call to action for strong Public Sector support through investment and
progressive policy and regulations to help increase an Exporter's fundamental
competitiveness and economic opportunity through an innovative Partnership for
Global Growth.
The current focus is on establishing the SB2 Expressway between New Zealand, as a
gateway to Australasia, and Canada, as a gateway to the North American Market, with a
view to replicate the model to other jurisdictions in the future.
