We asked Robert why he wants to get involved in positive developments in the industry.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 I am passionate about accelerating the digitalization of the water and sanitation sector \u2013 both in Sweden and internationally. Through my work at Aqua Robur, I have seen the difference modern IoT solutions can make for more efficient, data-driven and sustainable water management. I hope to contribute with experiences from innovation, international growth and how new technology can be scaled up in a traditional industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aquarobur.com\/se\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aqua Robur Technologies<\/a>&nbsp;was founded by two Chalmers students in 2015 with an idea to contribute to a smarter water infrastructure using innovative technology where real-time data provides control and helps detect leaks, monitor emergency releases or investigate make-up water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What challenges do you see today and how do you think the board of the Water Industry can help to address these challenges?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 We are facing a tough challenge in the form of aging infrastructure and increased climate-related stresses. At the same time, there is often a lack of resources and incentives to change. The board can play an important role in driving collaboration between technology suppliers, municipalities and decision-makers and, for example, highlighting concrete cases where digital solutions are yielding results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you see the future of sustainable and resilient water management?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Sustainable and resilient water management requires that we dare to think new things, both in terms of technology, working methods and collaboration. Digitalization is a key to enabling the system change that is required. By using real-time data and smart analysis, we can optimize maintenance, reduce water losses and make better decisions. The board should prioritize knowledge dissemination, standardization and innovation-promoting efforts so that more actors dare to take the step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We warmly welcome Robert Andersson to the Water Industry Board!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I samband med Vattenindustrins v\u00e5rm\u00f6te valdes Robert Andersson, Aqua Robur Technologies, till ny ledamot i Vattenindustrins styrelse.
