Meet the CEO with Rubis Energy Kenya
Balancing Resilience, Financial Returns & Corporate Responsibility for Sustainable Growth.
This morning, we were delighted to host our Meet the CEO breakfast meeting in partnership with our Platinum Member Rubis Energy Kenya, for an insightful session on building resilience in the energy sector, as part of our business breakfast series.
Mr. Olivier Sabrié shared how Rubis Energy, a French multinational operating in over 45 countries, is navigating the complex intersection of growing energy demand, decarbonization pressures, and market volatility across East Africa.
Key themes of the session included:
Building operational agility through strategic partnerships, risk management, and local stakeholder engagement.
Ensuring financial discipline and diversifying revenue streams to future-proof the business model.
Advancing a long-standing CSR strategy with impactful projects like RUBISOL’s solar plant.
Embracing digitalization and AI to forecast demand and manage assets more efficiently.
A major takeaway: resilience, financial returns, and social responsibility are not trade-offs, but complementary drivers of sustainability.
A warm thank you to Olivier Sabrié for taking us through today's insightful presentation. Many thanks as well to all participants for making this a dynamic and forward-looking exchange.
