Dream Renewables - Expert Impact

Barnaby King and Sam Yeboah,

Dream Renewables

Met with Chris Gourlay

Samuel and Barnaby are the co-directors of Dream Renewables, a Ghanaian social enterprise which empowers communities in rural Ghana with renewable energy produces, services and education about renewable energy. This arm of their business conducts high quality professional services at fair prices with some of the profits donated to Dream Renewables NGO which focuses on small organically developed projects within Ghana, specifically the Volta Region.

Chris was sharp and focused without being intimidating in any way. He listened deeply and was open to debate, rather than a ‘I’m right, your wrong’ attitude which I have experienced before with other mentoring programmes. Chris quickly understood our unique situation and swiftly moved onto providing useful insights and suggestions.
