Ryan Little

Mr. Little is co-Founder and Vice President, business development, of StormFisher Biogas, a Canadian-based renewable energy company that converts food processing by-products into natural gas, electricity and fertilizer. With $350 million in project capital available to develop 30 projects in the next five years, StormFisher has the largest capital pool in the world to develop biogas plants.

Prior to co-founding StormFisher, Little launched a firm that would eventually become the world’s first business-to-business e-commerce application for the energy industry, where he would garner the distinction of being Canada’s youngest CEO of an incorporated company. Later, during his first year at Queen’s University in 1999 and with proceeds from his success with his web services firm, he co-founded an online charity, CanadaHelps, which has raised more than $85 million in charitable donations to date.

He holds a BA from Queen’s University and an MBA from the Richard Ivey School of Business, University of Western Ontario. He is regularly featured in business publications, speaks to audiences worldwide about social and environmentally-conscious entrepreneurship, and is the recipient of several awards, especially for his work in the charitable sector.
