President Obama speaks at the Symbion Power Plant , Tanzania
“ Of course , like any organization we have to make money , but we also want to do good .”
– Paul Hinks , CEO Symbion Power would have destroyed many businesses . But with the support of its majority owners , it came out the other side stronger and wiser . “ Of course , like any organization we have to make money , but we also want to do good . We achieved this in Iraq and proved at the same time we could build critical infrastructure in very difficult circumstances . In Afghanistan , I saw first-hand what can happen when bringing employment , skills and new capacities to less developed countries is made impossible by a business environment where the dominating objective is maximizing profits , and I pledged never to work under such circumstances again ,” says Hinks .
