Tobias is a social technology entrepreneur working on climate change and climate justice. He has built two businesses in India, where he lived for 7 years, and one in Africa - all around distributed solar energy. With Village Data Analytics (VIDA) he now wants to change the way we invest in the 2 billion people living in villages in Africa and Asia, to give them access to critical infrastructure, connect them to a low-carbon, digital economy and make them more resilient to climate change. For that, VIDA uses the best available data technology.
