Thanks to this year's host utility:
"This conference will bring young professionals together for real-world learning, honest conversations, practical skill building, and connections that go beyond surface-level networking. YPs will get exposure to their peers, learn about different career paths in the water industry, network across the state, and celebrate their journey as they begin new adventures within an unlimited career path! This conference is the "who's who" of young Texans in the water industry!"
