Eggs, Income & Impact — Alice Chang on Scaling Hatch Africa Across Six Countries

Alice Chang believes that small flocks can drive big change. As part of Hatch Africa, she explains how providing dual-purpose chickens and feeds helps smallholder farmers across Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Ghana, and Côte d'Ivoire improve family nutrition, raise incomes, and create real choices—from education and healthcare to reinvestment.
Alice’s path spans the US, Shanghai, and Bain & Company before moving to Uganda to scale solar access. That experience led her to agriculture, where an income-first approach ensures sustainable impact. In this Ignite 2025 conversation, she also shares how EO practices like lifeline exercises and one word check-ins strengthen teams, and why resilience and connection are essential to leading in tough markets.
This episode blends management rigor with purpose-driven impact—a roadmap for scaling social enterprises at continental scale.
