Joining us today is Mike Silvestrini, co-founder and managing partner of Energea, a renewable project developer and retail investment platform that is focused on emerging and frontier markets. Mike took his FIRST company, Greenskies Renewable Energy, to a nearly half-billion-dollar valuation before selling and is now focused on connecting investors to renewable energy projects and developing renewable energy around the world.

He served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Mali, West Africa, as a small enterprise development officer. Since then, he has returned to Africa on many occasions, including several excursions to admire Africa’s incredible wildlife through his volunteer work for Big Life and to support small-scale African businesses through a U.S. State Department-led program.
