Résumé
Born and raised in Zurich (Switzerland) to parents of Ghanaian descent, Jeffrey Provencal grew up between two cultures. He studied banking and finance, before working at BlackRock for a few years. Looking to engage in a more purpose-driven activity, he later came across the concept of impact investing and chose to redirect his career path. In 2015, after winning a grant from the European innovative fund EIT Climate Kic, he created rePATRN, a startup that aims to solve Ghana’s plastic waste mismanagement issue by working with informal waste pickers. He is now fully dedicated to the growth of rePATRN.
