Published by Trudi Schifter, CEO and Founder AquaSPE for Burnt Island Ventures in Business
In 2025, water crossed a tipping point. We saw 8 billion dollar deals in water and growing PE activity. Water prices continued to rise as did the price of storm water. The insurance industry saw a massive shift in its reality that's only the tip of the iceberg for this sector. Join the BIV team for a focused deep dive into what actually happened in water in 2025 and what we think — and can reasonably expect — for 2026. We’ll break down the investment activity, pricing dynamics, regulatory shifts, and climate-driven pressures reshaping the water landscape, and connect the dots between water, resilience, and capital markets.
