Yes, we know our name is a mouthful, but we couldn’t come up with a better way to encompass who we are, what we’re doing, and how we’re seeking to make your life better.

So, who are we? We’re the CEO Institute of Econometrics & Democracy, or CIED (seed) for short. We’re in the business of helping you become the CEO of your life and show you how you can grow.

Our goal is to provide overlooked communities with the capital they need to succeed and the education to help small businesses grow in ways they never thought possible. We want people to be able to stay in their communities, run their businesses, and create a solid footing for a better future.

Our Mission

At CIED, we want to help people get funding for their dream projects and provide business-oriented education to help them succeed. We target people from communities that are frequently ignored by mainstream lenders and struggle to get business funding at reasonable terms. Not only do we want to help you get funding, we’re also ready to help you learn how to be a better business owner and become the CEO you’ve previously dreamed about.

The people behind CIED have decades of experience in their careers in the financial and educational industries. We want to empower communities with access to vital funding and business education. At CIED, we believe that overlooked communities can thrive and be a great place to live when provided with the funding and tools to grow.
