Serving business leaders around the world
CEOs are at the forefront of driving global economic growth. From new business ventures to the creation of jobs, CEOs actively generate opportunity across the globe.
These efforts can only be achieved by overcoming the daily challenge of securing the resources needed to grow or to keep their business running. A tight schedule of trade shows, business travel, and networking is packed between company management and a personal life. We’ve imagined a better way.
Matching the right counterpart to every business need, in a timely way
We believe that finding the right business partners should be easy and fast. We aim to foster economic growth by providing every reliable business leader equal access to global business opportunities.
Opportunity Network is breaking down barriers to trade and investment for chief executives and investors around the world.
Our secure business environment is a one-stop solution for executives and investors of vetted companies to connect with reliable counterparts for all their commercial, fundraising, investing and M&A needs.
Our platform combines cutting edge algorithms and a dedicated concierge service to make finding the right business partner, locally and globally, easy.
Connecting businesses from the very start
During Brian Pallas’ time at Columbia Business School, where he earned his MBA in 2014, he joined the Family Business Club. Intent on helping his father expand the family business in Milan, Brian started a newsletter anonymously connecting his fellow club members with each others’ actionable business opportunities. This was the beginning of Opportunity Network.
