“Kenya is honored to serve as the hub for Africa in this global event and recognize the challenges in the energy & extractive sectors must be analysed from a geo-political standpoint. HERWorld is imperative as we showcase women setting the pace in these sector. The energy challenges from a Sub-Saharan Africa(SSA) standpoint lie in its access, generation, production, management and distribution,” explained Lucky Ogutu Okudo, CEO and Founder, Women in Energy and Extractives Africa (WEX).
