Based on the information, here is our review:
Our first observation is: that this is an international Business Honor Society, meaning that the ability to network with alumni is not limited to the US--it extends to the rest of the world, as well.
Our second observation was: many societies only recognize Undergraduate or Graduate students, but this also recognizes student pursuing their Doctorate degrees.
Our third observation was: that other than the acknowledgement for federal employment and a resume builder, we’re not sure how this differs in terms of other business societies. It claims to be superior, but the benefits remain largely similar.
