Corporate Advisory Board
The Global Business Coalition on HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria has established a Corporate Advisory Board to advise GBC on its future strategic direction in spearheading the business fight against global epidemics. The first key priority is to support Ambassador Holbrooke and the Secretariat in expanding GBC's membership.

The Corporate Advisory Board consists of 22 leading member companies, reflecting the geographic and sectoral diversity of GBC's membership. Led by GBC's President and Chairman, the Advisory Board's membership is open to the Chief Executive or Chairman of a member company. Membership of the Advisory Board is by invitation from GBC's President. However, member companies can also apply to join the Advisory Board at any time by contacting the GBC office in New York.
