Originally from Western Massachusetts, Wilder moved to the Netherlands in 2020 to pursue an MSc in Water Management and Governance, where he eventually started working in water infrastructure for a global investor. In 2025, he took the leap of faith to go full time on his startup. After re-registering it from Vietnam to Germany, he and his co-founder are now focusing on the Southern African market. Currently based in Cape Town, Wilder loves meeting new people and exploring innovative business models, especially in the water space.
