Welcome to Episode 31 of SunCast

Today we will be spending time with Juan Fermin Rodriguez of Kingo Energy.  Stick around if you're interested in hearing:

• The strategy behind starting an off-grid solar company focused on Latam instead of Africa and Asia
• The size of the Latam offgrid market
• The difference in technology's role in Latam versus other markets
• How Kingo has become one of the best-capitalized solar startups in Latin America
• And a detailed discussion of both their fundraising and go-to-market strategy  

Today's episode is a doosy.  I'll be honest; it was NOT what I expected.  I would say that I enjoyed this conversation as much as any I've done, and I believe it's one of the most valuable we've brought to you yet.
