Our History

CGA Technologies began as a passionate team of doers at Booz & Company, who worked together for five years in South Sudan before launching our own consulting company together, Charlie Goldsmith Associates Ltd (CGA), in 2011. CGA partnered with governments, private and civil sectors, school systems, and impoverished communities in Sub-Saharan Africa for eight years before joining the Corus International family in 2019 and becoming CGA Technologies, where our work to serve the world’s poorest continues fueled by even greater resources, expanded networks and deeper benches of expert staff.
