  • Mission

    We help people improve their lives by catalyzing private sector growth and employment in economically developing countries.

    About Us

    IESC is a leading U.S. nonprofit organization that catalyzes private sector growth and creates economic opportunity for people and communities throughout the economically developing world. Since 1964, we have delivered lasting solutions across 139 countries.

    We were founded in 1964 by a group of American business leaders, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists-chiefly David Rockefeller-who believed that businesses are the engines that drive economic growth and innovation and that supporting them can lift countries out of poverty.
