The MBIE-led Digital Boost programme is focused on supporting more small business owners to realise the benefits of digitising their business – including making greater use of digital tools and adopting digital processes.

Part of B4B’s role is to understand and support the diverse needs of New Zealand businesses. These resources provide an introduction to what NZ businesses look like and how they operate, and how they engage with government agencies.
The New Zealand Digital Business Index provides a comprehensive and representative overview of NZ businesses’ digital adoption, capability, and potential future adaptability. It captures these attributes in a way that enables us to monitor businesses’ digital progress over time – including by business size and industry.
