What is the Global From Asia Local City Chapter Program?

The Global From Asia (GFA) Local City Chapter Program builds on the legacy of Global From Asia, a community established in 2013 as the world's largest Cross-Border E-Commerce platform for business leaders to learn, network, and foster partnerships. GFA began as a platform to highlight Asia's role as the center of cross-border business, supporting entrepreneurs with practical solutions and resources to simplify international business operations. Over time, it adapted to meet the needs of a shifting global economy, and today, GFA continues to provide the tools and support necessary for building global businesses.

The program empowers local entrepreneurs and communities to create globally connected business hubs.
