On May 29, 2008, the Department of Water hosted the WA Water Innovation Conference. The conference attracted over 250 scientists, industry representatives, consultants, water providers, land developers and local and state government representatives, who heard a range of presentations about the importance of water science and innovation in Western Australia.
The Honourable The Premier of Western Australia, Alan Carpenter, the Honourable Minister for Water Resources, John Kobelke, and the Director General from the Department of Water, Kim Taylor, provided keynote addresses. Guest speakers were drawn from the Premier's Science and Innovation Council, the Department of Water and from some of the exciting research projects funded by the Premier's Water Foundation, many of which have already achieved outstanding results.
