The paper examines international business education through an intergovernmental organisation viz. International Center for Promotion of Enterprises (ICPE) which is the only intergovernmental organisation devoted exclusively to international business education. The institution was established as International Center for Public Enterprises in developing countries on the initiative of the UN Secretary General at a time when public enterprise was in ascendence. Most of the member countries have now jettisoned socialism and the public sector therein has climbed down from the commanding heights of their economies. The importance of international business education in developing countries is being increasingly recognised. A SWOT analysis reveals that this organisation can be developed to achieve its strategic objective of providing high-quality low-cost international business education to the developing country professionals by providing exposure to the developed country institutions.
