While studying at Imperial College London, Mansoor met BBOXX's two other co-founders – Christopher Baker-Brian and Laurent Van Houcke. Through their experiences travelling, they saw first-hand the challenges that communities and businesses face without access to energy supplies. In response, Mansoor, along with his two classmates, founded a successful student charity, called e.quinox. Mansoor led this student charity from 2008-2010, which initially brought electricity to six villages in Rwanda and continues to operate today. Mansoor has professional leadership experience in the Engineering/Customer Service Sector with Rolls-Royce plc in the UK and Hong Kong.
