EOA allowed me to grow my professional network in multiple ways… It also gave me the opportunity to open myself to new people who have become very close to my inner circle. It was an incredible experience that shaped a lot of my current mentality.

EO Industries

From Real Estate to E-Commerce, Consumer Goods to Construction, EO Industry Groups connect peers who deeply understand or want to learn more about a specific industry or business sector.

These community offerings include:

- Educational and development opportunities
- Networking with peers in the same sector

Every time that I reach out to the EO universe, in any of the industry groups I belong to, my membership is paid. I ask for a need, or I share a lead and I get back so much from the EO universe in terms of their feedback, their experience shares, connections, their network.

Emilio Huguenin, EO Guadalajara

The EO Under 35 group has been life changing for me since I’ve joined EO. I joined EO after I had just sold my business and was going through a major transitional time in almost all parts of my life… I was able to connect with so many amazing EOers on the retreats and build bonds that will truly last a lifetime.
