When Erfan started Fiberlink, his vision of "Internet in every home" seemed farfetched to most people. Today, thanks to Fiberlink and its partners, that vision can become a reality in many parts of the world.
In addition to Fiberlink’s work, Erfan Nouraee has separately taken on some projects to address issues that interest him personally, such as advocating for human rights and climate justice. In all his work—with Fiberlink and otherwise—he’s focused on what he calls a people-centered innovation approach: working on inventions that improve the quality of life for people everywhere.
These days Erfan Nouraee focuses most of his time on the work he is doing through his start-up. People are often surprised to hear him say that getting involved in politics has a lot in common with his work at Fiberlink. In both cases, he gets to bring together smart people and collaborate with them to solve big, tough problems. Erfan is gratified to know that his start-up and its partners are helping people in rural communities access high-speed internet.
