Welcome to this episode of Hardware to Save a Planet. Today, Dylan is joined by Rory Brogan, Founder and CEO of Torev Motors, a company that has redesigned the electric motor to be more efficient while reducing the use of harmful rare earth metals to make the motors more sustainable. Join the discussion as Rory unpacks how the Torev Motor is more efficient and reduces the consumption of harmful rare earth metals, and listen to his insights on the importance of innovation, customer validation, and the five ‘T’s in the startup ecosphere. Get inspired by Torev’s mission to build a sustainable future and find out how their innovative motor design sets them apart from the competition. Rory is a founder, venture capitalist, and storyteller. The engineering and mathematics graduate, who earned a coveted spot in the Georgetown McDonough School of Business MBA program, believes that business, in its most basic sense, is the interaction of people for the exchange of goods and services, and what is human interaction if not the intersection of stories?
