Welcome to a special live episode of She’s Interesting, recorded at Startup Summit's Women In Tech Breakfast powered by Conexus! Join host Rashel Hariri as she sits down with Monique Simair, Founder and CEO of Maven Water & Environment, for an eye-opening discussion on resilience, overcoming setbacks, and sustainable growth.


Monique’s journey from farm life to award-winning environmental tech entrepreneur is filled with powerful lessons on perseverance. After facing a tight job market as a PhD biogeochemist, Monique created her own path, founding her first company in 2010. But her path wasn’t always straightforward; being let go from a government job triggered self-doubt and negative self-talk. Despite this, Monique landed a $500,000 client and has since bootstrapped her way to success, now leading Maven Water & Environment with a high-growth approach.
