REGIONAL NETWORKS
RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS ALLIANCE 2021 ANNUAL REPORT
16
In 2021, the RBA launched additional regional networks in key geographical areas: Europe, Southeast Asia, China and Mexico. Similar to RBA’s Japan Network, which was created years earlier, these networks serve to further enhance the experience and input of RBA members. The regional networks play an important role in meaningfully connecting RBA member companies and RBA staff on a regional basis, providing a platform for region-specific information flows and discussions. The regional networks are also a great way for regional members’ staff to get to know their peers through networking opportunities. The regional networks are facilitated by in-region RBA staff, in close collaboration with in-region RBA member representatives. They focus on trends and developments in those regions, how they impact company efforts there, and effective approaches to addressing those challenges, which may be unique to those regions.
