BIBA promotes global careers at home

Barbadians do not need to leave the island to pursue well-paid international careers, says Carmel Haynes, Executive Director of BIBA, the Association for Global Business, who sees local opportunities as a way to curb brain drain.

Speaking to members of the media as the association launched Global Business Week 2026 with a church service at the Abundant Life Assembly, Haynes said several activities were planned to introduce students and young people to the range of career opportunities available in the sector.
