In this interview, I speak with Boris Martin, CEO of Engineers Without Borders.
EWB Canada is a charitable organization that is focused on the investment and training for Tech Start-Up Companies in Africa.
Boris and I discuss the EWB, technology in Africa over the last, emerging markets, what the future holds and much more!!!
A brief history on EWB:
With humble beginnings and a bi-weekly meeting in George’s parents’ living room, the dream slowly grew into reality. By the end of the year 2000, the initiative was supported by over 1000 members and a handful of chapters around the country. In 2001, our first volunteer left for a four-month internship in India.
Today we develop leaders by investing in people. We spark innovative businesses and support entrepreneurs by investing in startup ventures. We create policy and institutional changes that influence corporate and government practices to improve global living conditions and access to basic needs by advocating for change.
