Waterfind has once again been recognised by the Water Industry Alliance, as the recipient of the 2014 Smart Water Leadership Award. The Leadership Award recognises Waterfind's work developing the Forward Water Market.

The Leadership Award recognises those that have excelled in terms of research and product development, as well as breaking new ground in developing policy, legal and financial frameworks underpinning the evolving water industry.

Waterfind's Forward Water Market allows irrigators to plan their water trading strategies in a new, unique and innovative way, ultimately providing them with the certainty they need to significantly improve their production planning. Waterfind's Forward Water Market is the only one of its kind in the world and provides Australian irrigators with an important competitive advantage, underpinning future water security and crop production.

Judges commented that Waterfind had shown exceptional innovation and is a forward-thinking leader in the development of the Australian water market.

Accepting the award, Waterfind CEO Tom Rooney commented "I'm thrilled to be able to accept this award on behalf of all at Waterfind. We are a passionate and hardworking team that continually strive to push the boundaries of what is possible, for the benefit of our clients".

"This is the latest in a long line of Water Industry Alliance Awards, and I hope it is not the end. To be recognised by the leading water industry association is a fantastic accolade and one which sends a clear message to our clients regarding our reputation as a reliable and trustworthy organisation".

"Thank you to everyone involved and to our clients for their continued support"
