Innovation with Purpose: Kurt Avery of Sawyer Products On The World’s Most Successful Purpose-Driven Business Models

Intoday’s business landscape, companies that integrate purpose into their core strategy are gaining significant traction. These businesses go beyond profit to create positive social and environmental impact, proving that doing good and doing well can go hand in hand. What are the key elements of these successful purpose-driven business models, and what can other companies learn from them? I had the pleasure of interviewing Kurt Avery, founder, owner, and president of Sawyer Products.

Kurt Avery is the founder of Sawyer Products and currently serves as president and owner. Before founding Sawyer, he served as a marketer for globally known brands. Avery is passionate about and committed to creating disease-free water for life in communities throughout the world. He is a graduate of Hope College and Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management. He and his wife Barbara reside in Florida and are parents of four and grandparents of five.
