EBC Services
Networking
Connect with expatriate entrepreneurs, investors, and business leaders across Bangalore and beyond through curated, high-value networking opportunities.
Building Connections That Matter
At the Expat Business Council, networking is not an afterthought — it is the foundation of everything we do. We bring together a carefully curated community of expatriate business leaders, founders, investors, and senior professionals across more than 17 nationalities, all operating in or connected to India's dynamic business landscape.
What We Offer
- Flagship Networking Events — Quarterly sundowners, industry mixers, and exclusive evening receptions held at premium Bangalore venues.
- Private Member Introductions — Our team personally facilitates warm introductions between members when a strong mutual fit exists.
- Roundtable Discussions — Intimate, topic-led conversations limited to 15–20 participants, ensuring depth and genuine peer exchange.
- Cross-Industry Forums — Sector-specific gatherings for technology, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and sustainability.
- Online Member Directory — A searchable directory of all active EBC members, filterable by industry, nationality, and expertise.
Who You Will Meet
EBC members include C-suite executives at multinational corporations, serial entrepreneurs, angel investors and VC partners, legal and financial advisors with India expertise, and professionals navigating career transitions into or within India.
Our Approach
We believe quality matters more than quantity. Every EBC event and introduction is designed to create lasting, substantive connections — not business card exchanges. Our membership application process ensures that every person you meet through EBC belongs here.
Frequently Asked Questions
We host flagship networking events approximately once a month, ranging from informal sundowners to structured forums and annual galas. Members receive priority invitations to all events.
Some events are open to guests of members or the broader business community. However, flagship members-only events are reserved exclusively for current EBC members.
Members can request introductions through the member portal or by contacting the EBC team directly. We review both profiles and, where there is a genuine mutual fit, facilitate a warm email introduction.
Our primary base is Bangalore, but we occasionally co-host events in Mumbai, Delhi, and with partner organisations in international cities. Watch the events calendar for updates.
