Summary

Join us in this episode as we dive into the global water crisis with Riggs Eckelberry. Riggs is the founding CEO of OriginClear, an innovative water technology company, and co-creator of Water On Demand, a platform that allows investors to invest directly in water projects.

Previously known for his work turning struggling companies around after the dot-com crash, Riggs became involved in the “blue space” when his team uncovered a way to extract algae from water. Now, he’s on a mission to unite the world by providing clean water – while playing a central role in collecting the resources to make it happen…

In this conversation, we discuss:

How to remedy the “unmet water budget” problem in America.
Which industries have the hardest water to treat.
The growing demand for DIY water treatment systems.
Why the water industry has historically low margins, and how this is changing.
The tax implications associated with water treatment.

You can follow along with Riggs and his important work by visiting the OriginClear website!
