CIES Global was founded as a hybrid organization created by Ebenezer, a benevolent association and NGO, and Fleximedical, a social and technological enterprise. The purpose is to take specialized, humanized and high-technology preventive medical care to communities in need through advanced mobile medical centres. From 2008-18, CIES Global treated around 2 million direct beneficiaries and had an annual budget of more than $33.5 million. Today, Fleximedical operates as a joint venture but is separated to respect Brazilians laws.
