Case Study: GlobalWelsh achieves 118% membership growth in one year with Hivebrite

How GlobalWelsh grew its diaspora community by 118% within one year

GlobalWelsh is a global professional community of Welsh people and friends of Wales that needed a purpose-built platform to unite its diaspora. The nonprofit struggled to find an off‑the‑shelf solution that handled membership management and fee processing, sub‑group creation, and event hosting — so it partnered with Hivebrite and adopted Hivebrite’s community platform to build a fully branded online home.

Using Hivebrite, GlobalWelsh launched a personalized, monetized community with networking events, the only global mentoring program for Wales, and tiered membership plans. Hivebrite’s platform helped the community grow 118% in its first 12 months, reaching almost 3,000 active members across 58 countries and enabling GlobalWelsh to better support Wales on the global stage.
