 The Capital Region Global Business Network (GBN) is a volunteer-based, not-for-profit membership organization dedicated to providing education and networking opportunities for expanding international trade in New York's Capital Region. Membership is available to any organization or individual interested in global business.
With roots that date back to 1986 in the Capital Region, GBN’s mission is to enhance the growth and prosperity of the international business community by supporting companies both currently engaged in – or thinking about – global business. We offer valuable networking relationships and provide practical educational opportunities for expanding international trade, while encouraging active participation among all organizations with serious interest in international business.
This year, GBN is excited to inaugurate a Series of International Business Briefings, which contributes once more to increasing networking opportunities for the companies in the Capital Region interested in international business.
