18 FEB 2022 · Today’s guests are Iain and Tim Stewart, a couple of lads (and I should mention identical twins) from the eastern 'burbs of Melbourne who provide us an insight to the company they’ve created called Exegenics. This start-up was the brainchild of Iain, an Engineer who created a possible game-changing algorithm to optimise chilled water plants in large buildings, factories and warehouses. 10-15% of our energy usage revolves around cooling - so that’s a huge market. Tim has used his sales experience to propel this business with the assistance of Energy Labs, a local start-up accelerator to hopefully tackle climate change and make a few bucks in the process.
Check out their website and start-up accelerator below.

This was one of the worst bushfires in Australia’s history, where on Saturday, the 7th of February, 2009 - this fire destroyed 450,000 hectares of land, injured 414 humans and over 1 million animals were lost. The most horrendous part was that 173 people were killed, three of those being Patrick’s mother, father and younger brother. In the matter of minutes, the lives of Patrick and his twin sister would never be the same.
