Hydrologic Social Enterprise received the IMPACT Business Award from GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH) as an exemplary business model presenting innovative products, services and technologies for mitigation and adaptation to climate change in developing and emerging countries.
