Su Kahumbu Stephanou

Farmer, social entrepreneur and CEO of Green Dreams Ltd and Green Dreams Tech Ltd
I am a passionate Kenyan farmer and social entrepreneur, founder and CEO of Green Dreams Ltd and Green Dreams Tech Ltd, focused on creating solutions for smallholder farmers in Africa to give them sustainable productivity and incomes. I am especially committed to educating, encouraging and enabling young people to engage in agriculture and build a better Africa from the ground up. I created the Apps4Africa Award winning mobile/web application iCow - supported by The Indigo Trust, USAID and GALVmed which receives UK aid and funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. I advise “The Changing Course in Global Agriculture Project” and I’m a TED Fellow and a devoted mother of three. My first brush with technology was the beautiful Omega stop watch my father bought me in my swimming days.
