Steve Daniels graduated from Brown University this spring with a bachelor’s degree in technology for emerging markets (a combination of engineering, economics, and development studies), but not after spending three months in Kenya, Tanzania and Ghana on a fellowship from the Brown International Scholars Program. The result was an honors thesis that forms the core of “Making Do: Innovation in Kenya’s Informal Economy.”

He is the founder of A Better World by Design, a conference put on by Brown and Rhode Island School of Design students, as well as Revolution x Design, a nonprofit that promotes socially responsible design.

He talked about what he learned about innovation while studying in Kenya and about what Rhode Islanders can learn from Kenyan entrepreneurs.
