In anticipation of next month’s Annual Meeting, Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) is running a new commitment each week in The Economist, highlighting the work of one or more CGI members.
We’re proud to be featured in the profile placed by our partner and funder EKTA Foundation in the August 7, 2010 issue of The Economist. The EKTA Foundation is an innovative family foundation based in Alabama, and has had an interest in Haiti since the 1980s. It has been a leading member of CGI’s Haiti Action Group and has spearheaded projects in Haiti for water.org and the Haitian Education & Leadership Program since its inception in 2007.
EKTA Foundation is supporting our expansion into rural and underserved areas of Haiti, like Leogane, where Inveneo has just established a permanent long-distance WiFi link from Port-au-Prince thanks to MultiLink, one of our local partners in Haiti and Rohan Mahy our newest Inveneo team member.
The Clinton Global Initiative hosts meetings with changemakers from the public, private and nonprofit sectors, all of whom have demonstrated a commitment to actions "to realize change." CGI Annual Meetings have brought together more than 125 current and former heads of state, 15 Nobel Peace Prize winners, hundreds of leading global CEOs, major philanthropists and foundation heads.
Inveneo is honored to be a CGI member for the fifth year in a row, and attend the CGI Annual Meeting 2010 on September 21-23 in New York City.
