🔎 Did you know that Sean Frisky created his first technology while on a summer co-operative education work study during his undergraduate engineering degree program? Or that in 2007, Sean was recognized by Government of Canada as a “Canadian Innovation Leader and a role model for technology-based innovation”?

About Sean Frisky:
A versatile inventor-entrepreneur and holder of over 15 patents, Sean built his company from a one-person operation in a garage into a global leader in water treatment and remediation. A Regina-based company, GEE designs and manufactures large-scale remediation and water treatments used by municipalities, manufacturers, and refineries throughout the world. His entrepreneurial and invention skills were tested during the Covid pandemic when he designed and built (in 6 weeks) a product that used ozone to safely decontaminate large spaces, without any residual chemical. For weekend fun, Sean invented a water-propelled FlyByke that used pressurized water to soar above the water. Further, to address unsafe drinking water for individuals and families, Sean adapted his large-scale water treatment technology to build a cell-phone sized device that uses an electrical current from a small battery or charger to treat contaminated water to make it drinkable within 45 minutes.
