A Proven Model for Success - Weekly CEO Briefing 09.02.2024 53:06
Every CEO Briefing should be this fun! We heard from Consumer Energy Solutions CEO, Jim Mathers (who then joined us LIVE!) all about why onsite, modular, decentralized energy solutions are the best answer for corporate sustainability, and how they relate to water. Actually, it's spookily similar! Hiring decentralized wastewater treatment genius, Dan Early, and developing his Modular Water Syst...
Spanning the Demands for Decentralized Water 02.02.2024 39:27
Once in a very rare while we encounter an innovation or development that is just breathtakingly brilliant.

Scaling Water As A Managed Service Micro-utilities 26.01.2024 53:26
We teased this briefing as how to build resiliency through distributed water management systems, and the scoop on how that initiative is developing is exciting, But the real show stopper was the briefing from Dan Early on adoption of the Water On Demand model by Real Estate developers… The interest in areas like Texas where development is booming is not only keen but the organic growth factor and...
Conquering Water's Infrastructure Crisis 19.01.2024 52:34
You'll see from the news items in this briefing that infrastructure stress and failures are becoming increasingly common place, and resultantly, demand for workable technology and solutions is at an all-time high.

Meeting Booming Infrastructure Demand 12.01.2024 42:48
It became evident from the news items covered in this episode that a number of major infrastructure demand drivers are creating a perfect storm. But what became even more evident is that our overall strategy correctly predicted it and is lining up with that demand… The new strategic fabrication partner we announced, a proven top drawer PR firm retained, tactical industry outreach and even a new wa...
The Progressing Rise of Commodity-based Finance 05.01.2024 55:46
Infrastructure stress is already outstripping grid capacities and with growing populations will only get worse.

Where Water On Demand Meets the Infrastructure Crisis 29.12.2023 48:17

To really understand...
Predicting Water Infrastructure Demand 15.12.2023 44:45
We cover in this briefing how layoffs of highly paid professionals are hampering real estate and other values, but meanwhile advanced manufacturing is on a tear. But what does that mean for water? As it turns out, the explosion of AI, sophisticated robotics and automation all have a common denominator… They require clean water infrastructure! Does that mean Water On Demand is also an infrastructur...
Launching the New Asset Class 08.12.2023 55:41
We detail in this episode exactly how we intend to rapidly scale Water On Demand and YES! It's all about our acquisition strategy… But what about the market for water?

But more important was our prediction of wat...
The New Approach to Clean Water Access 01.12.2023 51:26
With centralized water districts allowing private actors to buy up water companies, outrage over the control of virgin water sources is "boiling over." And water rates in affected areas are soaring!

Any interview with COO Tom Marchesello is guaranteed to be interesting. In this interview his analysis was amazing.

We already have big-name client data center projects, but next stage? Data centers are turning to l...
Making Water an Investable Asset 10.11.2023 56:25
How could an investment in water be more liquid than real estate but carry the lower risk factor of structured products and equities? In this briefing we'll show you how Water On Demand does exactly that! But what may be even more awe-inspiring is the accelerating adoption, scalability and potential of its prefab, modular infrastructure and the promise it offers businesses and developing commu...

We're making Water As An Asset work for the everyday investor, not the Ashton Kutchers of the world, who made 1...
A Milestone for the People's Asset 27.10.2023 51:35
Why does our announcement of a Definitive Agreement to merge with a Nasdaq-listed blank-check company make us so irrepressibly optimistic\ Well, if we hadn't just pulled off birthing the corporate equivalent of a hybrid, water super-hero — maybe we wouldn't be so cocky! But when you factor in the strength of Modular Water's ground-breaking technical solutions, Progressive Water's 2...
The Emerging Potential of Water 20.10.2023 49:50
Sam Altman pointed out that the number of 25 year old startup entrepreneurs is declining — is the risk too great or is some other factor shutting them out? And how does this apply to the water industry? Well, with 7 million jobs becoming available due to the industry's "silver tsunami", job openings are plentiful… But not in centralized facilities — in the blossoming privatized water...
Leading Water Innovation 13.10.2023 54:33
The headline says salt water intrusion is encroaching on New Orleans drinking water.

Water — The Emerging Asset 06.10.2023 48:56
We periodically step back and take a broad look at the big picture — global economics, inflation and productivity, what's declining — what's arising. You know — proven, reliable indexes. Experienced investors may have their favored avenues of investment, but the wise ones keep a sharp eye out for emerging assets. So what did the data tell us about water as an investment? Well if it wasn...

Its no coincidence Progressive...
When Water Becomes Strategic 22.09.2023 42:28
We looked at how having water self-reliance can mean the difference between survival and catastrophe when faced with natural disasters, which just makes our crusade to decentralize water all the more important. Thankfully our vision is starting to catch on and is becoming reality! What does that mean for the future of water? Find out here in this episode!
Gaining Security Over Water Risks 15.09.2023 46:33
In this briefing we delved into why you don't really want to be totally dependent on the government for clean water. We've been evangelizing it for years and these days even Bloomberg advocates treating water onsite for non-potable reuse… But how about "self-reliant water" — how can we make it a reality on a wide enough scale? Find out in this episode!
Scaling to a Global Market 08.09.2023 1:14:32
We've known for years that what water needed was to decentralize infrastructure — something we know exactly how to do. But what about scaling it fast enough?
