Global Solutions Institute

The Global Solutions Institute (GSI) is the first institute dedicated to deploying technologies and other solutions that improve lives worldwide. Our mission is simple: deliver proven innovations where they’re needed most—especially in developing countries—to create real impact in energy, water, food, the environment, and healthcare.

GSI began in December 2012 at a historic gathering in Little Rock, Arkansas. The meeting brought together the Club de Madrid — over 100 former presidents and prime ministers from 70+ countries — and the P80 Group Foundation, founded by HRH Prince Charles, which partners with the world’s largest pension and sovereign wealth funds.

Their shared mission: accelerate the deployment of technologies that address growing global resource shortages.
At the close of the meeting, these leaders signed the Little Rock Accord, establishing the Global Solutions Institute as the hub where innovators and decision-makers unite to confront the planet’s most urgent issues.
