In June 2019, Business Leaders featured Trevor Tasker, the CEO, and president of EMCS Industries. Established in 1955, the company invented the first marine growth protection system and provided anti-corrosion and anti-fouling solutions for marine vessels. Their clients include Princess Cruises, Holland America, Windstar Cruises, BC Ferries, and the Canadian Coast Guard, to name a few. In this in-depth conversation, Trevor explains the value of anti-fouling technology in preventing critical systems from shutting down, argues there is an increasing demand for ships to be environmentally friendly by using frequency-based products that do not harm marine life – and shares how his experience of recording and selling his album gave him a strong business acumen that he could apply to any industry.
