Description

SOURCE Global is an Arizona-based organization founded by world-renowned Engineering professor Cody Friesen whose mission is to make drinking water an unlimited resource. The brand is backed by Bill Gates Breakthrough Energy Ventures, Microsoft's Climate Innovation Fund, and Blackrock. I invited Neil Grimmer to join me on Tech Talks Daily to discuss how the company's hydropanels use the sun to draw pure water vapor out of the air and transform it into fresh, high-quality, perfectly mineralized drinking water. I also want to learn more about the technology that makes it al possible and how it has impacted the citizens of remote communities in 50 countries worldwide. About Neil Neil Grimmer is an entrepreneur with a rich history of disrupting categories by bringing to market innovative products and human-centered brands.
