Water Canada's Water's Next awards puts it at the centre of its industry

Water Canada magazine built its reputation with its audience by creating an annual Waters Next awards and showcase for the water community -- people and companies working to expand and improve water and wastewater management. It's a good example of making your magazine indispensable to specialist readers who may also be entrants and expert judges. 

From some 90 submissions, 8 awards were made recently in Vancouver in conjunction with the Canadian Water Summit, produced by Actual Media, publishers of Water Canada and ReNew Canada magazines.

“Water Canada started Water’s Next as a way to celebrate the thriving national water community and showcase Canada’s water leaders, champions, and innovations,” said editor Rachel Phan in a news release. “These eight Water’s Next winners have worked tirelessly to make safe, healthy water resources a priority in Canada.”
