In this episode, Will and Tom are joined by Aaron Tartakovsky, co-founder and CEO of Epic Cleantec.
He talks about the company genesis, and going back to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Reinvent the Toilet challenge.

Although leading a recycled water beer campaign that went viral, the scaling of the business has not been without its challenges. During early events, Aaron was told by senior utility teams that he’s the guy putting them out of business!
