Sami Khoreibi is one of the most curious people I've met.
By the time he was in his mid-thirties, he had already launched and sold two energy companies. His escapades started in Canada and took him to Abu Dhabi, where he eventually exited his last venture where Masdar was a strategic partner.
Sami is truly passionate about driving environmental sustainability. He's currently working on his latest venture, Wisewell, as part of a broad effort to ensure that everyone has access to clean and sustainable drinking water. I left the conversation feeling encouraged about the prospects of solving climate change if we have people like Sami leading the charge.
During our conversation, I heard Sami:
Recognize macro trends early and be an early mover not once, but twice (and I think he's doing it again!)
Use passion and a higher purpose to drive him constantly
Be curious and humble enough to always admit what he doesn't know
