We would be honored if you can speak on September 6, 2017 on a panel at 9:45 am about safe drinking water, particularly about the EPA's regulatory programs and initiatives and its engagement with the public and private sectors to help ensure safe drinking water. Leadership from the National Science Foundation and A. O. Smith are also invited to present on this panel.
During this event, leaders in industry, education and research, and the government will also dive into issues on water infrastructure in addition to safe drinking water. We will discuss the role of water technology innovation and share how Wisconsin is leading the way.
Milwaukee and The Water Council are widely recognized as the leading water technology hub for economic, technology, and talent development in the world. The momentum of Wisconsin's blue economy continues to grow at a rapid pace, and as we expand our programming to include the newly launched ICE (Innovation Commercialization Exchange) Institute, developments from the world's water hub will continue to emerge and shape the way our businesses and universities connect on a global level.
We hope that you will be able to join us in Washington, D C. on September 6. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (414) 988-8751 or damhausHthewatercouncil .com.
Sincerely,
