On the afternoon of May 14, 2023, agents from Mexico, Spain, Türkiye, China, Japan, and USA joined The GlobalEyes Network for a focus group. Spending several hours together, the group covered numerous topics including: challenges for agents in the K-12 sector today; how the GlobalEyes User System (GUS) Platform can help agents; how The GlobalEyes Network can assist with current challenges; and looking forward in the K-12 international education market.

During these dialogues with agents, Paul Millman stressed three things that motivate us at The GlobalEyes Network with reference to agents. 1. We want to give them something better. 2. We want to give them something back. 3. Together we want to move the industry forward. What followed was extensive discussion in a collegial atmosphere and participating agents expressed their enthusiasm for the opportunity to meet together with counterparts from multiple countries who were all focused on one sector.

Jorge Blanco, Language Kingdom, shared his enthusiastic response to the event. “The GlobalEyes Event proved to be an extraordinary occasion, allowing us to forge new connections and rekindle existing ones within our industry. The event served as a dynamic platform for learning and growth, reinforcing our dedication to enhancing our beloved industry. It was a refreshing experience that left us buzzing with enthusiasm and firmly established its position as a prime industry gathering.”
