Karel Kosman is a young African man with a vision: harness the power of the Internet to improve the lives of poor African natives. His approach is brilliant in its simplicity. Karel travels throughout Africa to remote villages in areas that may not even have electricity. Using solar panel technology, he hooks up the village to the Internet so that the natives can learn basic PC and Internet skills. As they become more proficient in using the web, people are encouraged to get online jobs in the fields of translation or web design. By investing some of the revenues back into the business, villages can grow their operations and provide more jobs and more income.
