In 2020, the event evolved into Global Business Week (GBW), aligning with Barbados&#8217; aspirations to become a global business hub while emphasising the significance of the global business sector. This celebration of global business taking place within Barbados but shared through our virtual platforms with the rest of the world will take place from October 19-25, 2025. The week of activities comprises a series of exciting events achieved through strong collaboration between BIBA and a number of strategic partners, such as your organisation\/ firm. These events attract high turnouts and strong media support each year.[\/vc_column_text]\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_width=&#8221;grid&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1481799010187{padding-top: 120px !important;padding-bottom: 120px !important;background-image: url(http:\/\/xpo.edge-themes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/page-3-image-6.jpg?id=9758) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-12 vc_col-md-12&#8243;]<div class=\"edgtf-elements-holder edgtf-responsive-mode-1024\" ><div class=\"edgtf-elements-holder-item edgtf-width-1-1\" data-item-class=\"edgtf-elements-holder-custom-910430\" data-1024-1280=\"0 70px 15px 0\" data-768-1024=\"20px 0px 45px 20px\" data-600-768=\"20px 0px 45px 20px\" data-480-600=\"20px 5px 0 5px\" data-480=\"20px 5px 0 5px\" >\n\t<div class=\"edgtf-elements-holder-item-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"edgtf-elements-holder-item-content edgtf-elements-holder-custom-910430\" style=\"padding: 0 77px 6px 0\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"edgtf-title-section-holder\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"edgtf-title-with-dots\" >\n\t\t\tWhy Get Involved?\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t<span class=\"edge-title-separator edge-enable-separator\" ><\/span>\n\n\t<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;8px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Participate, Engage, Transform.
