Asia Affiliates
Regional Overview
Filled with skyscrapers, shantytowns, and everything in between, Asia is a region of ingenuity, diversity, and opportunity. Partners Worldwide has worked in Asia since 2002 to empower a growing regional network of over 1,600 Christian business people who are setting higher goals and taking longer strides to overcome poverty in this global movement.
In Cambodia, India, China, and the Philippines, business people work in collaboration with our North American partners to bring effective value to the SME entrepreneurs in their own country and neighboring countries. Mentoring relationships are also growing throughout Asia, including high-impact entrepreneurs from Hong Kong who directly mentor SME business owners from central China and other parts of the Asian region. The Asian region is filled with people passionate about overcoming poverty and impacting the Kingdom in an innovative, sustainable way.
Cambodia Christian Entrepreneurs Network
Phnom Penh
In the next “up-and-coming” Southeast Asian country, business owners and entrepreneurs from every level have partnered since 2005 as Cambodia Christian Entrepreneurs Network (CCEN). Based in the capital city of Phnom Penh, this association of nearly 40 members shares the vision to build a larger network of Christian entrepreneurs throughout the country. CCEN facilitates monthly training and local mentoring, and publishes quarterly the only Christian business magazine in Cambodia.

As the eldest daughter in her family, Mok Samphea was put to work as a child to support her family. By her early twenties, employment was not easy to come by in Phnom Phen. When she married a young man from the local Christian church, they were both looking for stable work. His family provided them a house, three-by-four meters. They sold CDs at the front door, but when their first child was born, Samphea decided their sales weren’t enough. She took the initiative to explore a business of her own.
Volunteer Opportunities
CCEN is looking for a Global Business Affiliate (GBA) to walk alongside the affiliate leadership in organizational development, strategic thinking and fundraising for matching loans. Members of the GBA will have the opportunity to provide industry-specific mentoring to CCEN members.
