“We chose Milwaukee for our first North American office because it offers something genuinely distinctive: a highly concentrated water tech cluster where utilities, engineers, researchers and innovators work side-by-side. Being based at 247 Freshwater put us in the middle of that ecosystem from day one. The Water Council has been especially valuable in helping us understand the market, make early connections and explore opportunities across the Great Lakes region.”
