Show Notes

In the face of more frequent extreme weather events caused by climate change, cities are facing new challenges and need to find new solutions to face them.

One of these challenges is to improve water management – one of the key pillars of sustainable cities – a factor behind the rapidly maturing smart water solutions market.

To investigate how cities and utilities are employing smart water solutions to manage water resources, prevent flooding and drive resilience within the water and power sectors, Yusuf Latief is joined by two experts from Guidehouse Insights; Eric Woods, Research Director, Smart Cities and Urban Innovation and Grant Samms, Climate and Energy Research Analyst.
