Has our world ever seen changes in technology so quickly? In just over 120 years we’ve gone from the horse and cart to the far reaches of our solar system. From the written letter to rapid email and a smartphone in almost every pocket, where we can have video conversations and conferences with our peers across the street or across the globe, instantly.

This is now, so where will we be tomorrow? For example, it is widely recognised that by the year 2050 one of the most important resources on the planet will be drinking water. This is the rate of change we’re dealing with. That’s why it’s vitally important that as a firm of engineering professionals we practice broader and deeper thinking with innovation and an understanding of the future.
