What We Believe In
Fight climate change
Climage change is one of the biggest challenge of our times. We believe that clean and reliable energy for everyone can be achieved without polluting the planet.
Ambition & passion
We embrace ambition and we are a group of passionate people. We see opportunities everywhere, we want to lead and improve and not follow or support.
Meaning over profit
Solving big problems offers commercial opportunities, but more importantly, our work means something to us, to our customer and theirs.
Prioritize emerging markets
A focus on companies that provide essential products and services to underserved communities in emerging markets makes the world a better & fairer place.
Collaborate to add value
We see ourselves as part of a bigger effort and believe efficient collaboration is critical — collaboration in the team, with customers, and with stakeholders.
Our Story
In a survey conducted by Shell Foundation in 2017, 90% of impact ventures reported that IT was a major bottleneck. On average, the surveyed companies used 7 different, non-connected software applications to conduct their business, creating data silos, duplication and inefficient processes.
enable|digital was created by the Shell Foundation and Persistent Energy in order to solve this problem, with the business model to enable impact ventures in emerging markets to grow quickly by utilizing digitized processes and tailored, connected and optimized IT infrastructure.
Due to our founders’ background in energy, many of our initial customers hail from this sector. Since 2017, we have worked with solar home system distributors such as Oolu in Senegal, Solar Works! in Mozambique/Malawi or Zonful Energy in Zimbabwe. We also have experience in the mini-grid sector (Rensource/Nigeria and candi/India) and worked in the solar irrigation sector (SunCulture, Kenya).
We expect to expand our customer base as we grow and mature, expanding from our origins in enery to other areas such as agriculture, cooking, sanitation, and transporation.
