Guleed Ahmed is the founder and CEO of Lander Prosopis, a socially-responsible company based in Somaliland. Prosopis aims to fight poverty through employment, dedicated to job creation in communities. By building an effective model for the use of Prosopis, the company will be among the first in Somaliland to generate the lion’s share of revenues from a local natural resource. The company seeks to ensure that the benefits from this natural resource remain in Somaliland, rather than being siphoned off exclusively for the benefit of international processors and distributors.

Nikhil Bhambi is a founding member and CEO of Green Community Consulting, a Pittsburgh-based technology startup developing a social and environmental impact intelligence platform that collects, measures, and optimizes organization's impact on underserved communities. GCC's goal is to improve the transparency and accountability of all organizations to eliminate the barriers to economic empowerment and health equity.

In this conversation Guleed and Nikhil reflect on how their very different companies work tackling environmental and economic equity.
