William Zhou aims to make recycling easy and intuitive. His EvoEco technology simultaneously teaches people to recycle and expedites the entire process.


William Zhou is the Co-Founder and CEO of EvoEco, a technology company driven to provide sustainable solutions for businesses. Stemming from a frustration that few technology companies were exploring environmental solutions, his deep passion in environmental advocacy, software, and user interaction inspired a permanent leave of absence from University and the foundation of EvoEco. He has built business relations with entities focused on sustainability at the national level, as well as locally - such as the Space Needle and the University of Washington - and continues to work with brands on providing sustainable technology options to divert consumer waste. He has served and advised numerous award winning game studios and has previously worked in research at the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the University of Washington: Computer Science – Center for Game Science
