Meet Steve Davis
“A pivotal moment for me was living and working in Asia in the 80s – I spent time at a refugee camp in Thailand and I saw the havoc of the war in Southeast Asia playing out – it was graphic and it forced me out of my bubble. I have since used that visual when making decisions, and the experience shaped my world view,” says Steve. “I’d like to see increased access to sustainable innovation, especially in poorly functioning markets and low resource settings. During PATH’s 40 years of developing and delivering products, we’ve learned that when innovations fail to achieve widespread use, it is typically the result of interrelated issues at the global, national, community, individual, and partnership levels.”
