Greg Denn – Managing Director

With over 40 years of engineering experience in solar and agricultural technology, Greg is possibly one of the world’s leading experts in these combined fields.

He is also a seasoned business owner having founded and managed three successful enterprises, including Project Support Services in Papua New Guinea and the Pacific Islands. More recently, he was a founder of Agsol and was CTO for 5 years. Supposedly retired, he is now our CEO and looks for every opportunity to get back into our workshop.

Vina Zhong – Procurement and Sales Manager

Vina has extensive experience of logistics, procurement and sales working in various industries across China. She has excellent knowledge of international supply chains – especially with goods moving between China and Africa. She is a director and strong driving force within the company in Africa and, remarkably, still manages to supervise all operations in our China-based entity, YME. Somehow, she also runs marathons and is a great mum to her Seven-year-old son.
