• Exela Ventures Social Enterprise

Our goal is to support communities through for-profit ventures that have several metrics of success besides profit. Our programs provide for locals of Guatemala in practical ways and promote an interface for worlds of people to meet..

Beyond the Sites

If we just brought you to the many beautiful tourist sites, that would be memorable but we want to do much more than that. We want you to help and support locals of Guatemala through your perspective and experience.

  • The World is FlatCompliments of technology and extraordinary supply chains, people and markets are linked that couldn't be just a few years ago. Now we can connect the rural farmer of the developing world to corporate distributor.
  • Partnering With the Big GuysWe have seen what can be done when the non-profit world partners with corporate. Coca-cola used their extensive distribution system to distribute vaccinations all over Africa. It is time to find our strategic partnerships in Guatemala.

We Look for Synergies.

Our programs are all about creating value from two unlikely partners. We bring you to opportunities which could not be seen before. Rain and Sun are not very similar, but bring them together and see what they can do for growth. That is what we are. We are the plantation of opportunity.

“If we stop thinking of the poor as victims or as a burden and start recognizing them as resilient and creative entrepreneurs and value conscious consumers, a whole new world of opportunity will open up.” C.K. Prahalad

 

That is our hope. Once we recognize that these foreign markets are not competitors but rather partners, much can be done. The challenge of today is to realize that the goal of business is not simply to achieve independence but rather to recognize the value of interdependence and the value that can be created from such a perspective.
