YPO Global Business Summit 2025

Connecting Leaders, Driving the Future

YPO’s 2025 Global Business Summit (GBS) in Los Angeles is the only YPO event where members can do business with one another — no filters, no barriers — just real opportunities. From fast-moving deal flow to peer-led insight, GBS is where capital, community and interactive learning converge, creating the perfect environment to forge partnerships and drive impactful business growth.

Connection Fuels Real Momentum

Whether you’re pitching a bold idea, sourcing strategic partners or tapping into new markets, GBS’s unique marketplace is designed for meaningful, business-driven connections — with AI-powered matchmaking that aligns you with peers who share similar goals and stage of growth. Rapid-fire Needs & Leads roundtables surface real opportunities, solve challenges and fast-track partnerships.

Learning Means Business

This isn’t sit-back-and-listen content — it’s fast, focused and built by members for members. With 16+ interactive sessions, industry disruptors and visionary CEOs dive into real-world insights where you can connect with peers who are in the trenches, leading and executing at the highest level. Think 40-minute takeaways, 20-minute table talks and exclusive speaker access for deeper dives.

Four Business Tracks Focus On:

Business Growth: Strategies to scale smarter in today’s climate. From leadership pivots to operations that drive results — this track fuels real growth in real time.

Money: What’s moving markets and why. Explore capital trends, M&A strategies, investment structures and how to fund your next big move.

What’s My Deal? Not just theory — these hands-on sessions help you analyze, frame and shape your next deal with confidence and clarity.

The Future: Tech, AI and geopolitical shifts — decoded. Learn how innovation and disruption will shape your next opportunity and how to stay ahead.

The Deal Takes Center Stage

If you’re investing, raising capital, scaling or selling, GBS is the runway where deals take off. Capital moves fast, pitches hit hard, and peer connections open real doors. From bold ideas in the Deal Marketplace to dynamic 1:1s on Deal Street to the high-stakes Deal Tank finale, where the top founders pitch live — this is where strategy meets capital and vision becomes action.
