OUR WORKING GROUPS & PRIORITY SECTORS
ANZMEX’s working groups are the engine of the chamber. They are specialized, senior forums where leaders from across the Australia–New Zealand–Mexico corridor turn conversation into commercial outcomes. Membership in a working group means direct access to industry thought leaders, established companies, and the kind of frank, high-trust dialogue that only happens in rooms of this calibre. Each group is co-led by experienced executives with deep sector knowledge and active networks, and meets throughout the year across approximately three focused events which could include roundtable discussions, networking forums, and sector-specific work sessions designed to be genuinely useful, not just a calendar fixture. Whether you are an existing member looking to deepen your engagement or a business considering joining, ANZMEX working groups offer something increasingly rare: consistent, meaningful access to the right people.

Priority Sectors We’re Growing
Manufacturing | Education & Tourism | Agribusiness | Air Connectivity | Diversity & Inclusion | Technology
ANZMEX also engages across a broader range of sectors where the Australia–New Zealand–Mexico relationship holds strong commercial potential. As our membership evolves, we are building towards dedicated working groups in these areas and we welcome members who want to help shape that growth. In the meantime, ANZMEX regularly organises events and connections across these sectors. We are actively in the process of developing a working group dedicated to Education & Tourism by the end of 2026.
