We work hard to fulfill our mission to solve critical water challenges by driving freshwater innovation and advancing water stewardship. But we don’t work alone. This month, I’m struck by how many of our activities involve critical partnerships.
The Water Council took a trip to the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility in Oak Creek, Wis., to check out a pilot demonstration by Tomorrow Water of its Proteus technology. The four-month pilot is part of The Water Council’s Pilot Program, arranged in partnership with the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD). Proteus could potentially revolutionize wastewater treatment by reducing the space and time needed to treat the water.
In developing the WAVE program, it was incredibly important to The Water Council to design a program that was responsive to the needs of the user and resulted in outcomes that were meaningful to external stakeholders. Learn more about the experience of Nutrien, one of the program’s first pilot participants.
When we think about international growth, we often think about big organizations. But depending on customer needs and company offerings, overseas markets can offer meaningful opportunities for smaller companies as well. One example is KenWave Solutions, a Canadian/Japanese firm that has recently been pursuing growth opportunities in the U.S.

After two years of remote work and virtual meetings, some of us are tired of the isolation of the home office and ready to venture back into the “real” world. If you operate a water-related business, if you’d benefit from the close connection to The Water Council’s water technology and stewardship network, or if you’d just like to work in a really cool building right around the corner from Purple Door Ice Cream, consider the Global Water Center for your new work home.
We are just a week away from the launch of our new program, WAVE: Water Stewardship Verified. Get the inside scoop at our introductory webinar at 10 a.m. CST Feb. 2.

What a year it has been for the country, the water sector, the sustainability movement and, of course, The Water Council. Despite the many challenges presented in 2021, The Water Council made great strides in building on previous work and charging into new territory. Read more in our December update.
It goes without saying that naval officers are interested in water. But officers from around the world got a brand-new view of water issues and solutions during a visit to the Global Water Center in Milwaukee on Tuesday. The visit was part of the Naval Staff College professional development program at the U.S. Naval War College in Rhode Island.
