Water – The Blue Gold‪™‬ Riggs Eckelberry

We viewed a profound clip in this briefing from Peter Thiel on why competition is for losers, and what it really takes to be #1 and would you believe that it isn't just about being better? You probably have some answers to that question, but one very important aspect of the equation is HOW you get there. So when our CEO relates how early on we took a "side-door" in the water space - called decentralized water, when literally NO ONE ELSE was looking in that direction, and it opened onto an even bigger space for us, called Water On Demand - and investor funded water systems, the dots start to connect… A solid aspect of our culture at OriginClear has always been looking out for our investors, but what does that have to do with looking out for regular everyday investors? Find out in this episode!

If you thought maybe our tease about Grant Cardone and the trailer park space being hot was just a come-on, this podcast will definitely change your mind. The fact that we've been operating in the space more than a year ahead of major influencers like Grant should tell you something. But the truly exciting part is what we're building out… If there is any reality to the statement that it's the mechanism by which we could experience "hockey-stick" expansion, then WOW! Does it have anything to do with acquisitions? Find out in this episode!

A pivotal point of this episode examines how successful companies go through a series of reinventions. But more significantly, how that factor relates to OriginClear… With the centralized water grid overburdened and failing isn't it about time for some reinventions? And that's exactly what we are doing by taking businesses off the grid! How does it work and what does it have to do with water? Find out in this episode!

We talk all the time about how 90% of fresh water use is by industry and agriculture and what the benefits would be if businesses treated their own wastewater and recycled it, and a big part of that equation is mastering the ability to rapidly deploy infrastructure to where they need it. Which is why our own Daniel Early's innovative adaption of the "unboxed process" to manufacturing Modular Water Systems is so strategically brilliant. But, what about the lack of funding? Well let's just say that we feel the matter is in strong hands… And what the heck are "strong hands"??? Find out in this episode!

You wouldn't think it possible but some US cities are losing 60% or more of their drinkable water AFTER they pay for it! So when we talk about the underlying issue in the water crisis being infrastructure what do we mean? Huge water loss in conveyance due to leaky pumping stations and increasing frequency of bursting high pressure water mains are just the obvious signs that our water infrastructure is failing. Large centralized treatment facilities are no longer the answer… We need nimble, rapidly deployable, point of use water solutions IN VOLUME. So, how can we do THAT? Find out in this episode!

We opened this week's briefing with an excellent presentation with OriginClear Advisor, Kevin Harrington, interviewing our own EVP, Ken Berenger. The interview definitely provides a clear and simple summary of just what's going on in the world of water and what we're doing, and planning to do about it. In the face of decaying water infrastructure, failing water treatment systems and catastrophic losses of clean drinking water becoming common place one could easily get discouraged… DON'T BE - Because you'll also see in this podcast that the cavalry is coming! And the team just keeps getting stronger… Strong enough to make the difference? See for yourself in this episode!
