CEOs Without Borders is a global non-profit enterprise that brings together businessmen and businesswomen willing to use their leadership positions, know-how and experience to foster the growth of businesses in developing countries.

CEOs Without Borders, enacted in 2006 in New York and Barcelona is exclusively financed by the contributions of private organizations and individuals.

Our Vision:

• Humanitarian aid is successful in alleviating the effects of natural and economic disasters, but it will not bring economic development. Only a strong business community can achieve economic growth and eradicate poverty.

• The global business community can, and should, play a leading role in promoting private sector growth in developing countries.

• The best approaches to the cause of development and poverty alleviation are those that rely upon market mechanisms and private sector incentives, which lead themselves to replicability and scalability.
