Biography

When I was young, I have always volunteered. I became a young PhD teacher at Paris Sorbonne Uni and I stopped my career in academic studies, publishing and writings when I understood the impact and challenges of the climate / social crisis. I believe energy is one of the key piece of the puzzle: farmers and SME's should have access to clean energy worldwild. With my team, we have created Solar Fire / GoSol to promote a direct thermal solar energy solution which is a mix of low tech and high tech. We empower people in a very effective way through educational trainings. We are working with Plan International, Autodesk Foundation, World Vision and other private and public partners and sponsors. We are currently in our A round. We already have 2 impact investors and are searching for more to close the round.
