AGENDA
Join SWAN and The Water Research Foundation in this joint webcast to explore how utilities can begin their digital transformation journeys. This webcast will be a panel discussion where utility representatives will share their utilities’ digital transformation stories. The utility panel will discuss questions such as:
- What is the first step your utility took to start their journey?
- Why should a utility go digital when they already have other assets that need attention and resources?
- How can a utility start their journey when they have limited resources?
- How do you ensure your utility’s critical infrastructure is protected during this transformation?
- How can utility decision makers overcome decision paralysis/paradox of choice?
