Nancy Economou is the Founder and CEO of Watts of Love, a global nonprofit working to end the cycle of poverty for the more than 700 million people living without reliable electricity — because no family should have to spend its future just to light the present. She designed and patented the solar light at the center of the organization’s model, pairing it with financial literacy training that helps households turn money once spent on kerosene and single use batteries, into savings, assets, and resilience.
