Welcome to International Business Society

The International Business Society is aimed for students passionate about global business, cross-border trade, and international markets. Whilst study sessions and certain events are aimed at those studying International Business, we are open to all students at UWE as a hub for exploring opportunities beyond borders.

The Society aims to:

• Organise industry visits to multinational companies and get first hand exprience how a business operates and navigates global challenges.
• Network with international business leaders, importers/exporters, global entrepreneurs, and professionals working in international markets to learn from those succeeding in the global arena.
• Provide academic support for international business coursework, including essay workshops, exam preparation sessions, and study groups focused on global business topics.
• Bring in guest speakers from different business organisations for insightful sessions.
• Ultimately, we would love to build community through social events, cultural exchange nights, international food experiences, and trips that celebrate our diverse, globally-minded membership.

Join us to expand your global perspective, build an international network, and connect with fellow students who share your ambition to do business on the world stage. Who knows, maybe you'll find the perfect partner for your international venture in this society!
