Get Matched with Industry in the Water Technology Sector
Registration is now open for the 2024-25 Industry Matchmaking Series
Join us for the waterNEXT Industry Matchmaking Series as we bring together water technology SMEs and end-users to share insights and build connections around the opportunities and challenges this sector faces.
This series of matchmaking sessions will draw on the previously established small group reverse pitch format. For each event, a panel of end users or engineering consulting firms will focus on a targeted sector, including utilities, PFAS and the water and wastewater sector, the critical minerals mining sector, and the built environment sector.
These matchmaking sessions aim to build connections between Canadian water technology SMEs and key audiences for their products and services and help these audiences better understand innovation cycles and startup needs.
Our SME-industry matchmaking program is supported in part by funding from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP).
Topics and Dates:
Water & Artificial Intelligence - March 12, 2025
Each includes a 60-minute panel discussion from 12 to 1 pm PT.
Instructions:
While this is a free program, you must be a client of IRAP with an assigned Industrial Technology Advisor (ITA) in order to participate.
If you are not currently an IRAP client, feel free to register anyway, and we'll send your information to IRAP to verify your eligibility.
If you have any questions regarding the event you can reach out to the waterNEXT Program Manager Nina Bader.
