IDEAS is an innovative international NGO that has worked for 45 years across four
continents in sustainable economic and enterprise development. For over three and
a half decades, it has provided consultancy services in 13 Latin American countries.
While based in Puebla and Mexico City, our virtual and hybrid strategy reaches entrepreneurs
across Mexico and beyond.
The focus of the IDEAS team in Mexico is to assist migrant microentrepreneurs.
Our first population: migrants from Latin American countries who have official permanent
residency status and are growing their microenterprises in Mexico.
Our second population: Mexicans who have been working in the US and have returned after many years to create a business or the families that are that are supporting their now bi-national families. Both these populations have significant difficulties in obtaining full economic and financial inclusion in the Mexican economy. IDEAS has significant skills in training and technical assistance that are improving their abilities to succeed. Most entrepreneurs are women who face even greater challenges.
IDEAS has many formal and informal organizational allies that are assisting us with this important, innovative, and precedent setting work. IDEAS works with financial institutions to learn how to help the populations to achieve economic inclusion and financial inclusion.
Assistance, and Solutions (IDEAS) is a very creative international non-profit. We approach problems in an entrepreneurial manner. We have created 15 social enterprises and 5 inclusive financial institutions focused on community economic development. Our services include training, technical assistance, publications, and evaluation. https://ideasnet.org/ or https://ideasnet.org/es/ Our financial inclusion program in Mexico: https://bit.ly/ideasmicro Training in Mexico: https://bit.ly/ideasactions
