Partnership to Make a Difference

IFC is partnering with donors to respond to global social and environmental challenges. IFC's 50 years of experience in private sector development in emerging markets gives the Corporation a global reach and local expertise. This allows donors to achieve the local impact they seek as well as contribute to developing innovative business models for sustainability that can be replicated elsewhere. Donors who have become partners recognize the benefits of tapping IFC's extensive knowledge and resources. Today, donors are able to work with IFC through the Innovator to drive sustainability innovations in five specialized areas.
