Building Bridges Across Borders - The Story of PRBC
The Pacific Rim Business Council & Chamber (PRBC) was founded by Holmes H. Stoner Jr., a visionary leader dedicated to advancing international trade, innovation, and sustainable growth. With over three decades of global business experience, Mr. Stoner established PRBC as a unifying platform for entrepreneurs, corporations, and government agencies across 30+ nations connecting opportunities, markets, and minds across the Pacific Rim.
Under his leadership, PRBC has evolved into a trusted network that drives collaboration across key sectors including trade, technology, infrastructure, and education. The organization works with influential partners such as CCPIT, KOTRA, and JETRO, fostering cross-border partnerships that empower businesses of all sizes to expand globally and operate with purpose.
Holmes Stoner’s guiding philosophy that commerce should be a force for connection and positive global change continues to shape PRBC’s mission today. Through business councils, international trade missions, investment forums, and development initiatives, the Council promotes ethical growth, innovation, and shared prosperity across the Pacific region and beyond.
Our goal is to build structured pathways for growth and collaboration across borders — enabling businesses to expand, innovate, and lead in a changing world.
