David Charles

Executive Director

Résumé

I have 20 years of experience delivering outstanding performance in France, the USA and Africa. I am an enthusiast and entrepreneurial professional with development finance, investment banking skills, expertise in climate and renewable energy finance combined to a vast network in Sub-Sahara Africa.

I am an afro-optimistic who firmly believes that creating sustainable prosperity and eradicating poverty across the continent is possible, if public resources are leveraged effectively and efficiently to enable the private sector through SMEs to play a pivotal role in Africa’s economic growth while creating decent jobs and equal opportunities.
