Barkley Day, Co-Founder & General Manager, Akora and BD Water
Barkley built his first business in his late teens where he started on the tools installing & maintaining irrigation systems while he put himself through a Mechanical Engineering degree. Finishing the degree, he put his business ambitions on hold to start a career in the mining industry where he helped build the largest dewatering system in the world and operated some of the most effective processing operations today.
Barkley has since founded two businesses Akora, an online property management platform and BD Water, a fully integrated engineering and construction company. He focuses most of his energy on building them into large scale operations via customer-centric models that counter the current leaders in each field. He prides himself on being able to bring the best value adders into teams and enable them to deliver the most amazing of results.
