Expanding my business outside of the United States was never something I thought I would do, and yet now I have strong relationships with people from around the world. I love that I can mix with high calibre of business leaders on a regular basis at Global Convention.

Phil Berg
Executive Director, UK
At Global Convention, you have the opportunity to meet with proven Directors, across all levels of BNI. Even better, they are incredibly accessible at all times. When I first attended a Global Convention, I looked up to them as leaders, and yet they were still willing to ask “How can I help you?”
Katarzyna Kosałka
BNI Poland Regional Director
My participation at BNI Global Convention was a unique opportunity for me not only to learn and broaden my horizons, but also to meet BNI Members and Directors from other countries. For me, the shared experience and exchanging of good practices with others provides incredible value.
