CBI aims to contribute to sustainability transitions in sectors in Africa, Asia and the Middle East. We do this by stimulating the export of products and services, particularly to Europe, together with local and international private and public partners. We focus on the export of niche products and services that offer economic opportunities for local SMEs as well as opportunities for more decent work in the sector and better treatment of the environment. For example, consider the export of organic variants of agricultural products, semi-finished products instead of raw materials and sustainable variants of textiles. In this way, we use export as a means to contribute to sustainability transitions.

We contribute in particular to SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth) and SDG 12 (responsible consumption and production). In each project, we focus on one or more sustainability issues. We pay particular attention to issues concerning women and young people. In order to contribute to the sustainability of sectors, we use systems thinking.

Although we are not very well known in the Netherlands, we have a strong name in many dozens of developing countries around the world because we uniquely link market forces with addressing sustainability issues. We implement our 2021-2025 strategy with a focus on sustainability, systems thinking, collaboration and co-creative and iterative work.

We have a portfolio of between 40 and 50 multi-year projects in more than 25 countries. We work on these with approximately 60 people, divided over three teams.
CBI is funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is a department of RVO. 

Please take a look at our website www.CBI.eu. There you will find more information about us, our projects, our market information and the strategy 2021-2025.
