Canadian Water Network (CWN) is delighted to announce that GHD, Stantec, and Xylem have become the first companies to join CWN’s new Innovation Partner Sponsorship program. 

About the Innovation Partner Sponsorship program

The Innovation Partner Sponsorship program bridges the gap between private-sector innovation and public-sector needs. More specifically, it: 

  • Promotes the thought leadership of leading companies and the broader Canadian water sector. 
  • Transfers knowledge and expertise between companies and members of our Canadian Municipal Water Consortium.  
  • Provides an opportunity to actively participate in innovative projects on specific priority issues of mutual interest. 
  • Promotes the visibility of partner companies in the Canadian water sector.
