• Improve the development and delivery of education to Jordan’s citizens through public-private partnerships, and in the process help the government of Jordan achieve its vision for education as a catalyst for social and economic development
• Encourage the development of an efficient public-private model for the acceleration of educational reforms in developing countries based on unleashing the innovation of teachers and students through the effective use of ICT
• Build the capacity of the local information technology industry for the development of innovative learning solutions in partnership with world class firms, creating economic value that will lead to mutually beneficial business opportunities

So powerful is the capture of the JEI that to date no less than 17 global corporations, 17 Jordanian entities, and 11 governmental and non-governmental organizations are working together to achieve the JEI objectives in partnership with the Government of Jordan. Direct contributions to the Initiative from global and local partners have reached over US$ 25 million.
