The Company That Turned a Kitchen Trash Can Into a Spreadsheet
For 20 years, Leanpath has bet that you cannot fix what you refuse to weigh. The payoff: kitchens that cut food waste in half, one logged banana peel at a time.
Rekosistem
Rekosistem is a Jakarta-based clean- and climate-tech company that manages Indonesia's fragmented waste supply chain end to end. Through a network of Reko Waste Stations, app-based pickup services, and material recovery hubs, it collects, sorts, and channels waste from households and businesses back into the circular economy. Founded in 2021 by Ernest Layman and Joshua Valentino, the company serves 90,000+ households and 200+ enterprise clients, processes roughly 4,500 tonnes of waste per month, and raised a US$7M Series A in 2025 led by Saratoga Investama Sedaya and K3 Ventures.
RoadRunner
RoadRunner (RoadRunner Modern Waste + Recycling) is a Pittsburgh-based, technology-driven waste and recycling company that helps commercial and enterprise businesses cut costs, divert more material from landfills and report on their environmental impact. Founded in 2014 by Graham Rihn, it pairs a managed-services model with proprietary software and AI-powered smart cameras (via its 2022 acquisition of Compology) to meter, monitor and optimize waste streams. The company serves 14,000+ customers across all 50 states and has raised roughly $150M in venture funding.
