Gabriel Saunders, the son of Deputy Premier Hon. Erwin Jay Saunders, Founder of Decomp, and Social Entrepreneur shared on the season finale of Bourne to Lead that pursuing social entrepreneurship is the way forward to creating more affluence for Turks and Caicos Islanders. Many are saying "we are Not living our best life" in the Turks and Caicos Islands and Gabriel believes a solution to this is creating business incubators for aspiring entrepreneurs to develop their business ideas and grow them into lucrative globally recognized companies.
Gabriel also shared his journey with Decomp and the company being a better solution to plastic waste pollution. Decomp has received some international awards since its founding and recently was selected as the winner of the Commission for Environmental Cooperation's Youth Innovation Challenge, representing Canada. The company was awarded $15,000 in non-dilutive seed funding. During the interview, Mr. Saunders advocated for the expansion of the MSME program as it is needed for locals to nurture their creative ideas.
Mr. Saunders also shared his views on Climate Change, and the advice Honorable Norman Saunders gave him as a child.
