ICYMI: You can stream the 5th Riverside Chat: Entrepreneurs for 21st Century Water Resilience from our website or YouTube. This was such a great conversation with pioneers in the tech industry who are developing comprehensive solutions to big problems in water management. https://youtu.be/QUHBMpeG_eQ
