Open For What Businesses

Open for Business: Promoting LGBTQ+ Inclusion Globally

As a business owner, you understand the importance of creating an inclusive environment for your employees and customers. However, despite progress in some areas, LGBTQ+ individuals still face discrimination and inequality in many parts of the world. This is where Open for Business comes in - a coalition of global businesses dedicated to promoting LGBTQ+ inclusion and equality.

Our Mission and Reach

Open for Business operates in several regions, including Southeast and East Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, and East Africa, with in-country regional leads managing our ongoing work. We also engage with international institutions such as the World Economic Forum, the United Nations, and European institutions to advance the economic and business case for LGBTQ+ inclusion. Our goal is to create a world where LGBTQ+ people are treated fairly and equally, and we believe that businesses have a crucial role to play in achieving this vision.

The Challenges We Face

Despite our efforts, the situation for LGBTQ+ individuals remains far from perfect. Discrimination and inequality persist, and it can be difficult for businesses to obtain the information they need to create inclusive environments. This is why we are committed to providing resources and support to businesses that want to promote LGBTQ+ inclusion. By working together, we can create a more inclusive and equitable world for everyone.
