Testimonials

"The senior leadership in OVO displayed a great deal of humility. They were very approachable and really made each and everyone of us feel very welcomed. It was also a very insightful day because it was my first formal interaction with the energy sector so I learnt a lot about OVO’s plan to Net zero."
