Two influential not-for-profit networks, Women in BIM (WIB) and BIM4Water, have announced a strategic partnership to strengthen collaboration, knowledge-sharing and digital transformation across the built environment and water sectors.
The partnership unites WIB’s global collaborative network, supporting Members in their professional and personal development, with BIM4Water’s cross-industry forum, which is dedicated to driving digital transformation across the water sector through Better Information Management.
By aligning shared priorities and initiatives, the collaboration will unlock new opportunities for cross sector engagement, strengthen industry wide knowledge exchange and support the continued advancement of digital capability across the water industry.
BIM4Water is open to all organisations involved in the management and delivery of water and wastewater assets. Its membership spans clients, contractors, consultants, suppliers and subcontractors, reflecting the breadth of the sector. Through free events, guidance and collaborative working groups, BIM4Water promotes best practice in “Better Information Management” across the UK and beyond.

Women in BIM brings an exceptional global community of professionals and by working together we can extend our reach, share knowledge more effectively and support the water sector’s ongoing digital transformation. It’s about connecting people, ideas and capability to drive real progress across the industry.”
