Dylan Lew, co-founder and CEO of Ecotone, chats with Scott Hartley, GP of Everywhere Ventures
In episode 114 of Venture Everywhere, Scott Hartley, managing partner at Everywhere Ventures, talks with Dylan Lew, co-founder and CEO of Ecotone Renewables, a company replacing traditional waste hauling with on-site biodigesters that convert commercial food waste into a locally distributed organic fertilizer. Dylan shares how building and operating an early digester that broke down constantly pushed him to rethink the entire food waste system from the ground up. He discusses how Ecotone is rewriting the economics of food waste management, turning what businesses write off as a disposal cost into a revenue stream and a locally sourced fertilizer supply chain.
In this episode, you will hear:
- Using state food waste bans to landfill as a distribution accelerant.
- Building a decentralized grid of on-site digesters over centralized facilities.
- Upcycling commercial food waste into a locally distributed organic fertilizer.
- Expanding from digester hardware to AI-powered waste intelligence.
- Sequencing a multi-sided business from digester manufacturing to retail fertilizer.
