GCE Global Limited, headquartered in London, is a private international professional network and workforce technology provider serving accounting and law firms and multinational corporations. The company connects 130–470 member firms (per conflicting internal sources) across 200+ countries, islands, and territories, offering global membership, corporate strategic planning, brand development, transfer pricing advisory, and professional networking services, and operates an annual GCE Summit event series.

The company's technology stack centers on GCE NEXUS, a unified global employment ecosystem that integrates augmented intelligence with dynamic statutory data, employer costs, and compliance variables, and PayrollCalculator.AI, an AI-powered payroll intelligence platform launched in March 2026 that delivers employment cost estimates across 235 countries in under 60 seconds. GCE also maintains a dedicated GCE Augmented Intelligence division led by President and CEO Andrés Rojas.

GCE Global monetizes through four streams: recurring membership fees, tiered summit event tickets (Explorer £385 to Galaxy Partner £1,965), subscription-based access to GCE NEXUS and PayrollCalculator.AI for multinational payroll and compliance, and professional services for brand development and transfer pricing. Distribution runs through direct sales, the member referral channel, event ticketing, and alliances with partners including RPA, ETL Global, Global Chamber, and TPS Transfer Pricing Service. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds or institutional investors.
