The rate of generation of knowledge and information is increasing exponentially. In the water industry, papers presented at water conferences every year represent the most current body of knowledge in the industry.

Conference papers leverage the collective brain-trust of water professionals globally, are very current, often commercially relevant and represent a crowd-sourced body of knowledge.

BlueTech analyses conference proceedings to identify key trends, hot topics and to gain commercial insights and support our research. Often after a conference these papers are lost in the mists of time, can be difficult to find and also there is the challenge of separating the wheat from the chaff to identify the truly impactful papers from the masses out there. 

This year they have screened nearly 600 papers to be presented at WEFTEC 2017 and have created a curated selection of over 60 of what we believe are the most impactful and relevant papers for anyone looking to keep their pulse on the key areas of change and innovation in the water industry.
