The Diaspora Ecosystem refers to the globally connected network of U.S.-based technology firms that are led by, serve, or are deeply rooted in diaspora communities—especially those with cultural, familial, or business ties to international regions. These ecosystems are defined not solely by family of origin, but by a shared ability to bridge domestic innovation with global markets, supply chains, and trade corridors.

CEBOT identifies and supports over 65,000 U.S. technology enterprises within this ecosystem, collectively generating more than $110 billion in annual revenue and employing over 550,000 professionals worldwide. These firms operate at the intersection of global innovation, inclusive economic development, and international commerce.

Building Economic Prosperity Through
Talent, Innovation, and Opportunity

For 25 years CEBOT, and its iterations,  has focus on member program research & development and economic algorithms while bringing knowledge and  capability transfer mechanisms to  intermediate partnerships, and fostering growth in the U.S. diaspora innovation ecosystem.

Over these decades the 501(c)(6) purpose remains clear.  To serve the common business and economic interest of our members, stakeholders and the communities they serve.

Capital Access Event - SBA 7a Working Capital Pilot

The Horizon25 kickoff event marked a pivotal moment for CEBOT members, spotlighting a breakthrough financial tool for CEBOT tech members—the SBA 7(a) Working Capital Pilot Program.  Launched just last year, this innovative capital instrument is designed for today’s agile, globally connected firms, offering transaction-based financing that supports both domestic and international growth.

This program provides access to flexible working capital without the heavy collateral traditionally required.  It enables members to secure larger contracts, expand operations, and engage in cross-border trade with confidence.

The Diaspora Ecosystem represents a powerful and globally connected field of innovation, talent, and enterprise. However, its full potential as a strategic economic engine remains underactivated due to a lack of formalized collaboration infrastructure, consistent engagement pathways, and real-time knowledge sharing.

CEBOT—as a research-based 501(c)(6) Board of Trade—recognizes that the solution lies not in correcting misalignment, but in constructing mechanisms for unified action, structured trust, and scalable opportunity design.

The interactive flow chart illustrates how the Digital Transaction Hub serves as a centralized system that connects members, partners, agencies, and vendors. 

The X-HUB System design facilitates secure, compliant workflows for contracts and payments, ensuring transparency, trust, and efficiency in every transaction—enabling seamless collaboration across CEBOT districts, regions, and global commerce ecosystems.

The Alliance CTA Program researches the connection point between contracting, trust and risk.  Governing partnerships through standards, smart contracts and program support workflow process improvement.

Mission: To lead a national holistic economic development agenda by promoting innovation and competitiveness, preparing CEBOT members and stakeholders for economic growth and success in the global economy.

Engagement requires value and produces consensus when process is key.  Governance gives rise to planned growth both individually and throughout the ecosystem.

Growth rises when not stifled by moral hazard.   CEBOT algorithms facilitate a deliberate system of principles to guide decisions and achieve rational outcomes.

Innovation liberates possibilities, improves systems and can transform bureaucracies into managed serviced/resource based functions.
