In 2017, a group of five young entrepreneurs from around the globe were selected as the ’25 under 25 Earthpreneurs’ for the Young Sustainable Impact 2017 innovation program in Oslo, Norway. After working online for four and a half months and having done extensive research in Sustainable Development Goal challenges, the team decided to work on SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation. This was the birth of Xyla Water.
