Traditionally risk-averse and slow to adopt emerging technologies, the water sector hasn’t seen the same AI momentum as other industries. In this episode of Transform, we bring the AI-in-water conversation to the forefront - exploring the real-world value AI can deliver and what’s needed for its responsible, ethical integration.

Host Divya Sarin (Senior Manager - Digital Strategy and Innovation at GHD), is joined by Satish Tripathi (Managing Engineer at City of Houston) and Freddie Guerra (Digital Water Market Lead at GHD) to unpack what it takes to build an AI-ready water industry. From predictive maintenance to digital twins, the conversation dives into the practical insights, pilot successes and the cultural shifts necessary to unlock AI’s full potential in water management.

Transform – Tomorrow’s thinking, today

Is the water industry ready for AI? A call to action for smarter utilities

We’re asking whether collaboration and real-time data can truly transform our transport networks and what it takes to deliver smarter, safer and more inclusive mobility for all.

In this episode of Transform, GHD’s Divya Sarin sits down with Darren Henderson, Technical Director, GHD, and Declan Lucas. Vice President of Business Development, Transmax, to explore the urgent challenges facing global transport systems. The conversation covers how digital technology and bold leadership are reshaping the way we plan, move and connect. 

They also dive into the power of partnership, the role of AI and real-time data in optimising networks and why equity and community engagement must be at the heart of transport innovation.

Listen now for insights on future-proofing transportation infrastructure.

Is real-time data the key to safer roads? Rethinking mobility for all

We’re asking whether data centres can thrive beyond the grid, and how regional infrastructure is unlocking new possibilities for AI and digital equity.

In this episode of Transform, GHD’s Andrew Morrison (Australian Market Leader for Property and Buildings, GHD) continues the conversation with Tai Hollingsbee (Head of Sustainability, Asia Pacific), Samuel Benson (Co-Founder, OceanBit) and Harqs Singh (CTO and Co-Founder, InfraPartners). This time, the focus shifts to the future — regional data centres, sovereign AI models and ultra-low latency infrastructure. 

They explore how decentralisation is changing the investment landscape, why regional hubs are critical to closing the digital divide and how sustainable innovation is driving new forms of community value.

Listen to hear insights on the next wave of data centre development and what it means for the future of intelligence, infrastructure and inclusion.
