MIND THE GAP
Global mobility has been a cornerstone of corporate culture since the post-Cold War era, with businesses increasingly operating across borders. Today, international expansion is more prominent than ever.

The first person to submit the correct answer to babc@babcphl.com will receive one complimentary ticket to our Winter International Business Networking Reception: PHL Celebrates Centuries of International Business taking place on Wednesday, February 5, 2025.
