Mr. Nam Phong Pham, Founder and Chairman of VuPhong Solar Power, began his journey in February 2009 by launching solarpower.vn, a website dedicated to solar and clean energy news.

VuPhong Solar was born after its first significant order: 14 solar power systems for Bu Gia Map National Park.

From a modest start-up, VuPhong Solar has grown into a leading Vietnamese solar company, distributing solutions across Asia and Africa. Mr. Nam Phong's TEDx Countdown talk, aligning with SDG 7 (Affordable & Clean Energy), offers insights into the future of clean energy, drawing from his 12 years of experience.

Nikola's perspective on meat consumption drastically changed after moving to India. Initially vegan for comfort, she soon embraced it fully after learning about animal husbandry's negative environmental impact. Though she hasn't eaten meat since, her focus has evolved from universal veganism to "reducetarianism," advocating for reduced meat consumption rather than complete abstinence.

Nikoleta Kováčová, also known as Surová dcérka (Raw Daughter), shares her journey on her blog, dcerka.sk. A vegan since October 2013, she covers ethical veganism, recipes, and cruelty-free cosmetics. She is set to publish "Slovegán," the first Slovak vegan cookbook. This summary relates to a TEDx talk. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.
