Photo Kongossa on Social Innovation #KOSI
Jeudi 19/06 dernier, nous avons eu le plaisir de recevoir les fondateurs du projet Idénergie. C'est drôle, génial et intriguant d'être inspiré par des jeunes Québecois qui ont une très bonne connaissance des enjeux à l'échelle de la planète.
Le projet Idénergie va permettre à des millions de personnes dans le monde mais aussi au Québec à enfin bénéficier d'électricité sans une très grosse logistique. Comme l'indiquait Pierre d'Idénergie, la majorité des populations qui manquent d'électricité vivent le long des cours d'eau. La Turbine d'Idénergie permettra d'aider ces populations.
Pierre sera l'un de nos conférenciers le 03 Octobre prochain à l'Usine-C
#kosi was great today. Something has changed today: half of the audience was new attendees. Hello to my new friends #kongossa is your project
