Meet the CEO with Schneider Electric East Africa

Technologies already exist to make companies energy resilient and net zero.

We had the pleasure of having Ifeanyi Odoh, Country President of Schneider Electric East Africa, lead our Meet the CEO Breakfast Meeting. The session sparked deep conversations on how businesses can accelerate digital transformation and drive sustainable impact in today’s evolving energy landscape.

Key Takeaways from the Discussion:

 The Energy Shift is Now

The world is undergoing a major transformation. With climate change concerns, rapid digitization, and the growing demand for energy access, industries must adapt—or risk being left behind.
122 countries have already pledged to double energy efficiency by 2030. Will your business be ready?

The Future Equation: Digital + Electric = Sustainable

Schneider Electric is pioneering solutions that integrate AI-driven automation, smart electrification, and efficient energy management—enabling industries to reduce carbon footprints while boosting productivity.

 Real-World Impact: From Healthcare to Industrial Transformation

Schneider Electric isn’t just talking about sustainability—it’s making it happen:

  •  Healthcare: Microgrids powering maternal health clinics in Kenya, reducing maternal mortality by 83%!
  •  Skills Development: Partnering with TVET institutions across East Africa to equip the next generation with expertise in renewable energy and automation.
  • Industrial Evolution: Supporting businesses to digitize operations, electrify processes, and decarbonize supply chains, making them smarter, greener, and more resilient.


The industries of the future will not only be more eco-efficient, agile, and resilient, but also AI-driven, software-powered, and fully digitized. The urgency is now—those who act today will lead tomorrow.

A big thank you to Ifeanyi Odoh, the Schneider Electric East Africa Team and all our Members and Partners for an insightful session!
