Global Business Solutions Inc. (GBSI) is an innovator in information technology services and Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT) that connects classrooms globally. VILT also provides the missing environment for STEM collaboration and competition and is closing the gap between the best educators and workforce development providers and learners. GBSI reinvested in the Northwest Florida community by creating 120 jobs and a capital investment of more than $5 million.

We would not be able to move forward at such rapid pace without our partnerships at both the local and state level. As our company continues to grow across all divisions, I anticipate hiring and expansion plans will begin to move even more quickly. Florida is in growth mode, and we at GBSI are thrilled to be part of that success.
