CONNECT GROUPS
The Canadian Business Council is proud to introduce CBC Connect Groups, a platform through which Canadians with common interests can come together, share knowledge, collaborate, and help each other thrive.
For over 25 years, the Canadian Business Council has been giving Canadians located in Dubai an opportunity to connect and thrive. The roster of CBC’s services has traditionally included several events, seminars, networking, and social events designed to bring together Dubai’s Canadian business community and establish Canadians (and Canada) as a premier force within city’s economy.
The CBC’s membership incorporates Canadians from all walk’s life, with a variety of professional interests and backgrounds. In recognition of the varying goals and areas of subject matter expertise within the Canadian community, and with the aim of highlighting the unique expertise that rests with Canadians operating in all sectors and segments in Dubai, the CBC’s Connect Groups will distill the vast knowledge held the CBC’s membership into smaller communities of practice.
Each Connect Group will focus on a particular sector, interest or community of practice and will each aim to serve the unique needs their own members while at the same time leveraging the CBC’s scale, reach, and resources. Connect Groups will be launched initially, focusing on areas of unique strength and interest among the CBC’s members.

All CBC members will automatically be enlisted into the Connect Groups of their choosing, based on their interests and career development goals. Membership within each Connect Group will not be exclusive - the goal is to allow members to advance themselves in whichever field they choose to participate in.
Each Connect Group will be led by a member of the CBC's Advisory Board, with direct access to the Chairman of the CBC in order to ensure that the needs of Connect Group members - who will all be CBC members - are being continuously engaged with and met.
