The Stream (with Will & Tom)

Shaping in-building water efficiency with Alex McCormack | The Stream S4 EP.4

Will Sarni & Tom Freyberg Season 4 Episode 4

This week, Alex McCormack, founder & CEO of Shayp from Belgium, joins Will and Tom to talk about Alex's mission to improve water efficiency in buildings in the most simplistic way possible.


Hear Alex talk about: 

  • Approaching water leakage from a different angle – namely leaks within buildings, not utility networks
  • Becoming B Corp Certified in January and what this means to be a business as a force for good
  • The origin story of the company, involving water quality and a school and a landmark case involving the Manneken Pis 
  • Supplying his hardware and software solution to schools, hospitals, commercial buildings and others.


Plus Alex talks about potential partnerships with water utilities and what he looks for.


And much, much more!
