“Global awareness of water as a systemic risk to society has never been greater. Investment in water solutions continues to accelerate as communities and businesses around the world address intensifying challenges like water scarcity, quality and resilience to climate change – and how to address these issues in an affordable way,” said Patrick Decker, president and CEO of Xylem. “Our combination with Evoqua creates a transformative global platform to solve these critical water challenges at an even greater scale.”
The combined company's executive leadership team will be led by Decker and include senior leaders from both Xylem and Evoqua.
