BCG participates in a number of the Forum's topic—and geography—based communities, which bring together member and partner companies, as well as leaders from civil society, for more informal interactions.
BCG partners are part of the Risk Response Network, which integrates the foremost thinking on a broad range of risks to help stakeholders to make timely and informed decisions. Additionally, BCG partners have been chosen for the Forum of Young Global Leaders, a community of exceptional people under 40 years old who share a commitment to shaping the world's future.
The firm is also represented on the Forum's Global Agenda Councils (GACs)—select, invitation-only groups that focus on key topics in the global arena. In addition to sitting on GACs that study issues such as emerging multinationals, social media, and skills and talent mobility, BCG has also supported the Japan GAC through pro-bono work on the Rebuild Japan Initiative following the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. GAC members are invited to attend the annual Summit on the Global Agenda, which helps drive the Forum's priorities and focus for initiatives and events.
