Written by CSIC Director Dr Jennifer Schooling and Mott MacDonald Global Water Sector Leader, Mark Enzer, the article highlights the benefits of early adoption of ‘Smart’, a global opportunity worth up to £4.8 trillion.

Industry, organisations and professionals need to be ready to adjust in order to avoid being left behind and to take advantage of the emerging opportunities.”
