Show Notes

Data and the Internet of things are giving rise to a more notable group of influential companies in water: Telecommunications firms. By providing the essential “rails” for data transmission and connectivity between utility systems, assets, and companies, telecoms are poised to increasingly leverage their unique positions at the center of the digitization of water.

While utility needs vary, municipal water utilities and industry become more sophisticated in their adoption of digital solutions, telecoms also see it as an opportunity to capture new sources of revenue – as their core services become commoditized.

As Bluefield’s Digital Water team wrap-ups their analysis for an upcoming report, Connecting Water Infrastructure: Telecom Company Strategies in the Global Digital Water Market, they present key findings of their telecoms research in this discussion.

  1. What is the role of telecoms in water today?
  2. How do water utilities, in particular, use telecom services?
  3. How are they positioned strategically?
  4. What does the competitive landscape look like?
