Our relationship with China takes centre stage in Auckland this morning.  

The 12th annual China Business Summit brings together business and political leaders to explore areas for cooperation amid deepening global uncertainty. 

New Zealand exported nearly $20 billion worth of goods to China last year.  

Auckland Business Chamber chief executive Simon Bridges told Mike Hosking political leaders have been shifting this country closer to our security partners, but they still have to maintain New Zealand's commercial interests.  

He says in contrast to the climate of uncertainty surrounding US President Donald Trump, his tariffs, and the war, China has positioned itself as a predictable and reliable partner.

Christchurch’s new stadium has put its stamp on the city, pumping $21 million into the economy in just 60 days.  

One NZ Stadium was forecast to generate $50 million in a year. 

The project was also completed six weeks early and $26 million under budget. 

Venues Otautahi chief executive Caroline Harvie-Teare told Mike Hosking they’re absolutely flying – it’s well beyond what they had forecast. 

She says things will flatten off a bit now that Super Rugby Pacific is over, but they have a really strong event pipeline, so those numbers are going to continue.
