Water

The inaugural LAUNCH: Water was held NASA Kennedy Space Center March 16-18, 2010.  There the select 10 Water Innovators presented their innovations which included transformative ideas, technology and research which addressed water sustainability challenges in areas that included water efficient vertical farming systems, low cost bacterial water testing, water contaminant floating sensor network, carbon credit financed water purification system, electro-chemical arsenic removal system and evaporation-based underground irrigation technology among others.

 

“What really impressed me about the Launch Forum was the Launch Team (Launch staff, council members, and innovators). These amazing people are changing the world in a profoundly positive way.  I look forward to seeing the results and contributions of future Launch forums, and I am very optimistic about the future of our planet.”

DTI-r was offered the opportunity to present our technology to a very select group of industry and business experts at the LAUNCH: Water forum. LAUNCH gave DTI-r an excellent opportunity to 'stress test' not just the technology, but also our business models, in front of experts;  then interact with them in small groups. LAUNCH proved to be a superb sounding board for DTI-r's technology and business.

Mark Tomkin, DTI-r, United Kingdom

The opportunity to be a LAUNCH Innovator was a tremendous benefit to me and to the future development of my water test technology. The LAUNCH Forum delivered increased visibility and unique insights for my innovation from all the experts, and most importantly within mission critical communities.
