I have extensive experience in operationalizing new technologies to become successful, large scale international businesses.In the last decade, through innovative research and development and a few strategic acquisitions, SIS has developed a Biotechnology Solutions Platform which provides the only integrated implementation platform for Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) available.We define IWRM in the most simple terms as "improving the re-usability of water throughout the Water Cycle". Our Biotechnology Solutions Platform provides innovative effective and proven interventions throughout the Water Cycle to provide- cost effective basic sanitation solutions for third world environments - rapid, cost effective improvements and increased capacity for waste water treatment infrastructure - the reversal of hyper-eutrophication of water resources in lakes, dams, reservoirs etc Over the past decade the Biotechnology Solutions Platform has been independently scientifically proven in terms of functionality and solutions delivery and validated for its scalability in terms of project size, climatic conditions, etc.This Biotechnology, (in contrast to many biotechnology initiatives which are focused on health and longevity benefits for the first world wealthy) has the potential to redress the global water crisis and deliver benefits to the third world poor and disadvantaged globally.The Biotechnology Solutions Platform transforms the economics of IWRM, the cost of the provision of wastewater treatment infrastructure, and the economic uses of water including addressing food security via aquaculture, intensive livestock farming etc.This is important transformative innovation that is of critical interest to those responsible for Integrated Water Resource Management strategy, wastewater infrastructure provision, and to aid organizations, NGO's etc responsible for the provision of basic sanitation and water to indigent populations, refugees etc.
