Making the Connection — Become a Sponsor

The 5th Annual GBSN Conference is the premier international forum to share best practice and expertise on management education for emerging markets.


Founded in 2006 with support from the World Bank Group, the conference includes some of the world’s foremost management practitioners and professionals in industry, academia, civil society, and government. This energetic and multidisciplinary group gathers for two days to generate ideas, discuss possibilities, and create opportunities. The meeting provides a platform for sharing best practices and new trends in management education from around the world. Past conferences have attracted more than 160 participants from more than 25 countries.

Joining the 5th Annual GBSN Conference as a sponsor provides your organization with a multitude of tailor‐made advertising and promotional opportunities to reach the people with the management savvy to make real decisions. The event includes expert panels, targeted workshops, a gala dinner and an exhibit area where organizations can showcase their products and network with potential partners.

Joining GBSN and the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business for this unique event will allow your organization to gain a better understanding of regional business schools as a source of talent, influence the direction of management education through discussion and partnership, and demonstrate your organization’s support for developing strong manager and leaders for the continued growth and development of emerging markets.
