We are focused on action-oriented programs
that make a real impact for LGBTQ+ people.
Open For Business’s programs exist on two levels: globally and locally. Learn more about these programs below:
Global influencer program
Our Global Influencer Program exists to create a collective global voice in support of LGBTQ+ inclusion as a business and economic development issue. We put the evidence base for LGBTQ+ inclusion on high-level platforms and work with senior leadership of our coalition partners to promote the economic case for LGBTQ+ inclusion with high-profile global institutions.
Local influencer program
Our Local Influencer Programs build strong business support for LGBTQ+ inclusive societies in countries around the world. These programs begin by conducting country-specific research on the economic and business case for LGBTQ+ inclusion. This research is used to bring together business leaders to empower them to advance LGBTQ+ inclusion in society. We also connect coalition partners with civil society organizations around the world to build business support for ongoing campaigns supporting LGBTQ+ rights.
