Dear subscribers,
09 June 2016
 
The Water Network has a huge database of knowledge in the form of Q&A, blogs, interviews, documents, articles, case studies, product & service summaries, discussion boards on over 150 themes, etc. It is all a free resource for you.   
 
I am excited to announce that as of next week we will be adding a functionality to allow all members to share specific knowledge to selected professionals in a simple way. As of Friday June 17, check it out! Suggest the content that you think should be highlighted on the homepage by adding a comment to @Vishakha Rajput.  
 
This is the first step towards creating automated interest boards & enabling "liquid decisions”.
 
Looking forward to our next steps together in smart knowledge sharing.
