The Global Water Awards recognise what senior executives across the international water industry acknowledge as the most important achievements of the past year. They are chosen by subscribers to Global Water Intelligence and Water Desalination Report, as well as to members of the IDA.
Nominations for this year's awards have now closed. The short-listed entries will be published in the February 2012 issue of GWI, after which voting will commence.
The winners will be announced at a ceremony to be held on 30th April 2012 in the magnificent Salone dei Cavalieri at the Rome Cavalieri Hotel, in conjunction with the 2012 Global Water Summit: Brave New World.
To discuss sponsorship for the event, please contact Jessica Underwood junderwood@globalwaterintel.com.
