The Dorado Group was founded by William Kappaz, who currently serves as its Chairman and CEO.   Prior to founding The Dorado Group, Mr. Kappaz was the President and COO of K&M Engineering and Consulting Corporation where he led the structuring and development of numerous infrastructure projects around the world including the first ever private power projects in Colombia, Jordan, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Tunisia, Ivory Coast and Senegal. He has structured and negotiated numerous power purchase agreements, fuel supply agreements, non-recourse project financed credit facilities, EPC contracts, O&M agreements, and project insurance agreements for over US$10 Billion of projects around the world.   Mr. Kappaz has developed and published new rules and regulations governing various countries’ energy sectors, unbundled vertically integrated state-owned utilities and established wholesale electricity markets.  His acquisition and financial turnaround of the Termovalle Power Project in Colombia has become a leading example of distressed investing, and its success created the platform for The Dorado Group.
