The NSW Consular Corp visit to the Mid-North Coast highlighted opportunities and capabilities in agribusiness, education and training, and industry innovation.

Charles Sturt University and Cassegrain Winery were included on the tour which covered from Woolgoolga to Port Macquarie.

Delegates from 14 countries learnt about opportunities spanning blueberries to wine and education.

Dean of NSW Consular Corp and Consul General of Denmark Michael Hansen said the group was pleased to see all the opportunities.

"It's a very hands-on economy," he said.

"People who live and do business here are very passionate about their industries."

Mr Hansen emphasised the export potential in the area and encouraged business interested in the export market to learn about other countries and cultures.

"It's important to be true to what they have been passionate about," Mr Hansen said.

"Don't rush and make sure you grow your business in a sustainable way."

Charles Sturt University Pro-Vice Chancellor International Education and Partnerships Professor Heather Cavanagh spoke about the university.

CSU has more than 100 partnerships in more than 25 countries ranging from research to course delivery, and student and staff exchange.

The university has strong international research and training links.

Professor Cavanagh also outlined a push to attract international students to the Port Macquarie campus into the future.

Parliamentary Secretary for the North Coast Chris Gulaptis hosted the tour in conjunction with the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Dean of the NSW Consular Corps.

Mr Gulaptis said it was an ideal opportunity for the NSW Consular Corp to visit the area.

"It is very timely given the federal government has recently signed free trade agreements," he said.

"It means there are wonderful opportunities for this region to showcase its agribusiness, education and innovations to the rest of the world."
