The Purposeful Strategist, a podcast from Menkus & Associates in partnership with Norman Broadbent, shares conversations with CEOs on how they translate organisational purpose into bold strategy, real impact, and lasting results.
How can energy access become a catalyst for long-term development? In this episode, Anthony Osijo, CEO of Bboxx, shares how the company is reshaping access to essential services across Africa through its data-driven platform - spanning clean energy, clean cooking, e-mobility, smartphones, and more.
With more than two decades of global finance experience, Anthony has steered Bboxx through a major strategic reset, strengthening commercial discipline while staying firmly anchored in purpose. Under his leadership, the organisation has expanded across key African markets, built deeper partnerships with governments and investors, and advanced its use of technology and AI to manage distributed infrastructure at scale.
Anthony discusses why energy access has a multiplier effect on opportunity, and how bridging impact, finance, and change is critical to building sustainable, scalable systems that improve lives and support long-term economic growth.
