Excerpt from [CNBC](http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000262407) -- "We started the idea for SunCulture through New York University's Business Plan Competition about two years ago... I studied mechanical engineering. I was working in renewable energy. We were doing large-scale commercial solar power installations and Samir came on board as a finance guy coming from Stern. So we put those two backgrounds together and made this idea happen."
