Harry Tannenbaum is the co-founder and president of Mill, a technology company combining hardware and AI to reduce waste and recover value from everyday materials, starting with food. Mill’s residential food recycler is now in tens of thousands of homes, creating the foundation for Mill Commercial, which pre-processes and analyzes food waste streams on-site, helping organizations reduce waste, gain operational efficiencies, and unlock new value from what was once discarded. Prior to Mill, Tannenbaum led the centralized analytics group and ecommerce business at Nest, which launched the first learning thermostat and became the leading brand for the connected home. During his time at Nest, he helped to scale the business to more than $1 billion in annual revenue. Following Nest’s acquisition by Google, he was a director in Google’s hardware organization, focused on ecommerce and subscription offerings. He received his bachelor’s degree in economics from UCLA. Harry is a surfer and was raised in San Francisco.
