Conserva Irrigation Founder Russ Jundt will share how he grew Conserva from a startup to an irrigation industry and franchise in a webinar hosted by Husqvarna.
Husqvarna’s webinar series, “Water Connections” will feature Husqvarna Senior Vice President Richard Restuccia interviewing Jundt in a special episode titled, “From Startup to National Success: How Russ Jundt Built America’s Largest Water Management Contractor.” The webinar will air live at 3 p.m. EST on Wednesday.
To join live, participants must register in advance; space is limited. The video will be added to Husqvarna’s YouTube channel at a later date.
Jundt launched Conserva Irrigation in 2012 as a national irrigation franchise focused on water conservation. With a background in underground utilities and franchising, he developed the System Efficiency Score, a proprietary audit that identifies inefficiencies in irrigation systems. Since Conserva began franchising in 2017, it has expanded to more than 200 territories across North America. The company received the Irrigation Association’s Vanguard Award for its measurable impact on water use reduction.
Jundt recently stepped back as the brand leader but remains active through his role at Empower Brands as president of national accounts for both Conserva Irrigation and Outdoor Lighting Perspectives. He speaks frequently on sustainable irrigation practices, smart technology and franchise entrepreneurship.
