MIT Water is the premier network for water research and innovation at MIT. Our mission is to bring together creative, passionate, and motivated individuals to explore ways by which research, innovation, and policy can help solve the most pressing challenges in the water sector. We organize a conference, lectures, research showcases, outreach events, and an entrepreneurship competition throughout the year, including our three flagship events:
– The MIT Water Summit brings together leaders from industry, government, and the scientific community to discuss the greatest challenges and opportunities in the water sector.
– The MIT Water Innovation Prize is a multi-stage business plan competition in which student entrepreneurial teams compete for $35,000 in prize money.
-The MIT Water Night is a family-friendly event combining water research, art and demos to engage and connect with the general public and broader science community.
