  What we do

 

Business cooperation

Successful CEOs around the globe share their know-how, networks and technology access with entrepreneurs developing business in less developed countries and help them push their businesses to the next level.

We intermediate connecting CEOs around the world through our Matching Centre. We also push for a dialogue among business communities by setting up an online social network where members can interact.

  • ESADE Business School students are volunteering to assist CEOs involved in business cooperation.

Research

Business cooperation allows us to identify common problems that entrepreneurs in developing countries are facing. We then work with formal research institutions to find business solutions to these.

We are currently working with Columbia University (New York) in the first world-scale project designed to evaluate the impact of different entrepreneurship aid models.

Future research is to be developed in identifying existing business solutions for price information in the agricultural sector in Africa.

Strategic alliances

We set up strategic alliances with organizations who look at developmental aid from a business perspective. We support entrepreneurs developing business in less developed countries with sustainable and, if possible, scalable & self-replicable interventions. We also join initiatives that contribute to improve the business environment.

Recent projects include collaborating with  Sara-Lee Corporation and Intel Corporation in the Malaki and Education Programs, respectively.

Currently, we are collaborating with the private sector in Ghana in the development of an affordable and commercially viable mosquito repellent system. We are teaming up with education enterprises in Senegal to promote rational immigration streams to Senegal. Finally, we are also working with Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Barcelona) to develop solutions for the agro-industry sector in less developed countries.
