About A bcdW
Where business
connect the dots
worldwide.
A bcdW is a city-to-city global partner network connecting America to Asia and beyond, built through bcdW Magazine.
Our Philosophy
Cities, not countries.
We believe the future of global business is built on direct connections between cities. In a world where Seoul entrepreneurs collaborate with San Francisco founders, where Tokyo creatives work alongside Los Angeles producers, national boundaries become less relevant than shared urban energy and ambition.
A bcdW started as an America-to-Asia connection, recognizing the immense opportunity in bridging these two dynamic regions. But our vision extends further — a growing network of cities worldwide, each bringing unique perspectives, opportunities, and talent to the global table.
By organizing around cities rather than countries, we tap into the real ecosystems where business happens: the neighborhoods, industries, and communities that define each metropolitan area's character and capability.

Our Origin
Built through
bcdW Magazine.
A bcdW emerged from the editorial network of bcdW Magazine, where we discovered something powerful: our contributors and connections were not just sources — they were bridges. Bridges between ideas, markets, opportunities, and people.
What started as a media platform evolved into something more: a network of trusted professionals across cities who could not only write about global business but actively facilitate it.
Today, A bcdW formalizes those relationships into four distinct tracks, giving our global community clear pathways to contribute, connect, and grow together.
