Antony Bugg-Levine joined the Rockefeller Foundation in New York as an Associate Director in January 2007. Prior to joining Rockefeller, he served as the Country Director of TechnoServe in Nairobi, Kenya where he helped to design and implement business solutions to rural poverty focused on smallholder farmer economic integration and consulting to medium-scale enterprises. In Kenya he also worked with various capital providers —including micro-finance institutions, commercial banks and private equity managers— to develop profitable mechanisms to extend lending to rural businesses and smallholder farmers. Earlier in his career, as a consultant with McKinsey, he focused in financial services and healthcare, managed the team that undertook a strategic review for the United Nations’ Global Compact and helped to develop new frameworks to incorporate social dynamics into corporate strategy. A native of South Africa, he served in the late 1990s as the communications director at the South African Human Rights Commission and as a speechwriter and media strategist for the African National Congress’s 1999 election campaign. Bugg-Levine is a graduate of Yale College and earned an MPA focused on Economic Development from Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School.
