GCL Alumni Giving Forward Campaign

As we celebrate 20 years of our first program, Global Competitiveness Leadership (GCL), our GCL alumni are leading a special campaign to raise funds for GCL 2027 scholarships. We invite you to join them in giving back to the program that has helped build our community and strengthen connections across the region. Any amount is welcome, and every contribution can help support the next generation of GCL participants. We hope you will join us in supporting this special goal and celebrating the spirit of giving back to the program.

Connections That Inspire, Mentorships That Transform, Communities That Transcend

​During the twentieth edition of GCL, held in 2026, Orly Goldsmith (GCL 2015, Mexico) stood out as one of the most highly recognized mentors for her active support, willingness to share perspectives, and ability to build connections to support her mentee. Her multicultural heritage, experiences living in several countries, and academic and professional background have made her a mentor deeply convinced of the value of building purposeful communities to help create a better world.
