The GFSB is expanding its offering with a new training and education programme that aligns with business trends and member needs – and we’re reaching out to members who deliver workshops, courses or CPD-style sessions to get involved. Our goal is to create a flexible, member-led programme that adds value without overload.
Why now?
Over the past 12 months, the GFSB has seen growing engagement from members across all sectors. Our bi-monthly Women in Enterprise breakfasts, speed networking sessions and business skills workshops have been popular and feedback tells us there’s an appetite for practical, focused training opportunities.
Who we’re looking for
We want to hear from GFSB members who work in training, education, coaching or consultancy and have knowledge to share. Whether you run sessions on leadership, sales, wellbeing, digital skills, public speaking, legal issues or compliance – if your expertise helps other businesses thrive, we want to explore ways of working together.
Why get involved?
– Reach an engaged local business audience
– Build your profile and attract new clients
– Contribute to Gibraltar’s small business community
– Deliver training at GFSB HQ or online
– Get marketing support across GFSB channels
Where we’ll deliver it
The GFSB’s newly refurbished premises at 122 Irish Town offer a flexible and central space for training and events. With meeting rooms, boardroom and conference hall – all recently upgraded and renamed thanks to support from our Strategic Partners justbank, TTMS and Gibtelecom – it’s a space built for business.

If you’re a GFSB member working in the training or education space and would like to be considered as a potential contributor, email us gfsb@gfsb.gi. Include a brief overview of the sessions you deliver, the audiences you serve, and any ideas you’d like to explore.
The GFSB has conducted a flash survey of its members concerning their experiences during the first two weeks of the new Treaty arrangements.
The Office of Fair Trading's latest Annual Report reveals record numbers of businesses, plans to simplify licensing through a new Business Act and fewer consumer complaints. GFSB's Business Support Manager, Kim Chang, breaks down what the proposed reforms, increased digital services and stronger enforcement could mean for businesses, and why the GFSB's role in shaping policy has been recognised.
What a year it's been! From the Treaty moving from negotiation to reality to AI, workplace pensions, business confidence and everything in between, this year's Thrive EDIT has helped members navigate one of the busiest periods in Gibraltar's recent history. Before we take a short summer break, Editor David Revagliatte looks back at the stories that shaped the year and thanks readers for joining us on the journey.
Could Gibraltar be missing a golden opportunity? GFSB Board Director Brian Ross believes the answer is yes. In this thought-provoking opinion piece, he argues that Gibraltar should consider a residency route for financially self-sufficient individuals, attracting experienced people with the wealth, expertise and international networks to strengthen our economy. Could this be the next step in keeping Gibraltar competitive?
For many SMEs, the success of the business has been built on the expertise, relationships and commitment of its owner. This entrepreneurial approach has been instrumental in the growth of many of Gibraltar's successful businesses. However, as organisations develop, dependence on a single individual can become a strategic risk.
