Global Leaders Circle

Connecting Columbus to the World

Join Us as a Global Leader

Greater Columbus Sister Cities International creates exchanges and enhances relationships around the world through the promotion of sustainable economic development, innovative cultural programming and leadership education. Members of the Global Leaders value our sister city relationships because they understand the importance of people-to-people relationships and international connections that expand our understanding of the world and each other. Through these touchpoints, barriers reduce, and borders expand allowing impactful economic and cultural exchanges to flourish.

“Columbus Sister Cities International’s programs directly assist in reducing barriers and building strong relationships that lead to successful business development. By building these strong collaborations, Columbus is playing a major international role that is critical to growth in the 21st century.”
