"In our society, Engineers are often considered as technicians, with medical professionals seen as having more impact," he explains. "My goal is to help correct this by pioneering new products and ideas that improve lives across the continent and helping deepen the impact and recognition of Engineers across Africa." Daniel also hopes to contribute towards increasing access to affordable energy, which he considers as one of the most pressing challenges facing the continent. He said: "A lot of people, especially in Africa, still do not have access to a reliable and affordable electrical power supply," he explains. "A lot of things are now becoming dependent on technology, and for the continent to be able to build and create new technological tools effectively, we need good power supply. If I have the opportunity, that is the first problem I will seek to solve."
