Meyer was vetted and selected by a review committee based on the depth and diversity of his experience. Criteria for acceptance included a track record of successfully impacting business growth metrics, as well as personal and professional achievements and honours.
“We are honoured to welcome Meyer into the community,” said Scott Gerber, founder of Forbes Councils, the collective that includes Forbes Business Council.
“Our mission with Forbes Councils is to bring together proven leaders from every industry, creating a curated, social capital-driven network that helps every member grow professionally and make an even greater impact on the business world.”
As an accepted member of the council, Meyer now has access to a variety of exclusive opportunities designed to help him reach peak professional influence. He will connect and collaborate with other respected local leaders in a private forum and at members-only events.
