Currently the Country Coordinator for the Water & Energy for Food Program (WE4F), Anthony joined Berytech in September 2020. He has previously served as Program Officer and as Business Advisor for both WE4F and the Food System Challenge (FSC). As part of his scope, he manages the portfolio of Lebanese SMEs that benefit from program support and oversees WE4F’s operations in Syria. During his time at Berytech he has been exposed regionally, working with innovators and colleagues throughout the MENA region, Africa, and South-East Asia. Being familiar with multiple programs, Anthony developed knowledge in many value chains, such as organic fertilizers and farming, food processing, renewable energy, and innovative water management systems. He provides tailored support to entrepreneurs to help them reach their goals and milestones, all while supporting WE4F’s management team in reaching the overall mission of the program.
Anthony is an impact-oriented individual. Social and environmental solutions are what drive him, specifically combatting food security and climate change.
