You have read the headlines and seen the news on two seemingly paradoxical realities: Arizona is both water challenged, while simultaneously exploding with jobs and population growth. How can this be? Is it mis-management of these precious desert resources or is there something else at play here?
Perhaps analyzing one micro-example on these otherwise macro topics, can help educate and explain how Arizona is managing to successfully grow & prosper in this challengingly harsh environment.
Specifically, the City of Maricopa and the Colorado River Mega-Drought are about the same age, extending back just over two decades. So how do you build a new, fast-growing city in the middle of the desert in the face of such water scarcity?
Come witness first hand, how the public-private-partnership between the City of Maricopa and Global Water Resources has not only allowed for this, but positioned the city as a green, aesthetically beautiful, and sustainable community with plenty of water resources for growth and prosperity and for citizens and businesses alike.
See & learn for yourself, that with true partnerships, advanced technology, innovative practices, and a whole lot of will power and cooperation across all regional stakeholders – government, private utilities, economic development professionals, agriculture industry, and more, it is not only possible - it is very real.
You are invited to visit/ learn /tour the Global Water reclamation complex in the City of Maricopa to learn more.
This event is a part of #AZTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at https://www.arizonatechweek.com
