g2 – the globalED gathering
Launched in 2021 by Gen Next Education, g2 was created to transform how university admissions and recruitment professionals connect with international high school counselors and IECs. The name g2 is derived from globalED gathering, reflecting its original vision: a space designed to foster deep, lasting relationships and meaningful opportunities to help create future-ready students.
Today, g2 encompasses both in-person events and an interactive online platform, offering a dynamic ecosystem for collaboration and professional growth.
g2 events provide diverse opportunities to connect and collaborate, from our flagship in-person gathering, g2 Experience, to our annual free online event, g2 Virtual.
