Forbes Councils operates as a consortium of invitation-only, industry-aligned communities designed for senior executives and business owners. The networks are grouped by sector—such as agencies, business development, coaching, communications, finance, human resources, non-profit, technology, and more—so members can make meaningful connections. Members participate in a mix of peer-to-peer engagement, live virtual events, and opportunities to publish bylined articles on Forbes.com, supported by a vetted community framework. Headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, Forbes Councils operates within the civic and social organizations space, positioning itself as a resource that aggregates leadership perspectives and practical insights for business leaders. It was established in partnership with Forbes.com and the founders of the Young Entrepreneur Council, with a pattern of collaborations across related Forbes Councils, such as a 2022 partnership with Forbes Finance Council. The organization targets senior executives and business owners across a wide range of industries, aiming to help members build relationships and access relevant resources.
