MISSION

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 conferences, lectures, research showcases, outreach events, and entrepreneurship competitions 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 MIT student entrepreneurial teams competed for $30,000 in prize money.

The MIT Water Night  is a family-friendly event where water researchers at MIT and other local universities connect with the general public and broader science community. 

The Working Water series is a set of research-to-policy interactive workshops, designed to help students and researchers increase their understanding of the political and social frameworks surrounding scientific research by hearing from a variety of experts with first-hand experience.
