Episode 124: Show Notes


Nation!,\\xa0you know I talk a lot about the Association of Water Technologies, AWT. However, there are so many water-related organizations out there. I wanted to share some other ones with you.\\xa0
\\xa0

Today we are speaking with Jim Summerfield and Jay Harwood, who volunteers with The International\\xa0Water Conference, IWC. I ask them all the questions I thought you would want to know about the IWC!\\xa0\\xa0

The IWC is holding its annual conference in San Antonio, Texas, November 8 -12, 2020. Their show is larger than the AWT and organized differently. If you haven\'t seen how papers are submitted, it is worth going just for that. They are currently accepting abstracts for papers at their upcoming conference. So, if you are interested in that, go to\\xa0https://eswp.com/water/iwc-call-for-papers.\\xa0The deadline for papers is March 6, 2020.\\xa0\\xa0

I would encourage you to\\xa0take a look\\xa0at different water-related organizations you can join to broaden your perspectives. You never know what you don\'t know. Being active in organizations exposes you to new people and new ideas. Being an active member helps raise the tide in the entire water treatment community. Please enjoy my interview with Jim and Jay.\\xa0
