SINCE OUR FOUNDING IN 2016, CURRENT HAS PUT WATER INNOVATION FRONT AND CENTER AS AN ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY AND SOLUTION TO A DEEPENING CLIMATE CRISIS.
We’ve helped raise more than $45M dollars to support water innovation and inclusive economic development; launched 10+ technology pilots; supported the commercialization of technology at 30+ water tech companies; and educated more than 30,000 people through our events and convenings.
Chicago is our sweet, freshwater home, but our partnerships stretch across Illinois, the Great Lakes region, and the world.
“Everywhere you turn right now, there’s a drought. China’s got a massive drought. Europe’s got a massive drought. The West has a massive drought. And Chicago has an abundance of water. That has a value when you’re thinking long term.”
— Rahm Emanuel, former mayor of Chicago

Our Strategy
Simply put, our strategy is to convene the right players, not for talk, but for action. Together, we win funding for water innovation work and then quarterback the execution.
Why Water? We will feel climate change most acutely when our water dries up. And if things don’t change quickly, it will.
Companies on the forefront of preventing water crises will win. Our job is to ensure that the Great Lakes region becomes a global leader in protecting our scarce water resources from both pollution and misuse.
Key
Strategic
Wins
We are leading Great Lakes ReNEW, one of 10 awardees nationwide in a first-ever National Science Foundation competition for up to $160 million in funding.
We won funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce for Upstream Illinois, the nation’s first inclusive blue economy strategy.
We also secured funding for a water-tech accelerator from the U.S. Department of Commerce. It will launch in 2024.

Careers
Joining our team is an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and collaborative environment where innovation and creativity thrive. We value diversity, teamwork, and a shared commitment to excellence. See openings below.
Commercialization Director
Current is seeking an entrepreneurial leader with a passion for technology and commercialization and a strong desire to drive innovation in the water and climate sectors and related industries.
The field of water-related technologies is rapidly evolving. We are looking for a leader who appreciates the technical and commercial complexity inherent in deploying and scaling water solutions but is also willing to work diligently to identify and break down all types of barriers to implementation through innovative programs and product offerings. As the Commercialization Director, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the long-term strategy of Current’s key initiatives, including Great Lakes ReNEW – Current’s NSF-funded Regional Innovation Engine, and Current’s water technology accelerator.
The complete job description is available at this link.
Interested applicants can upload a resume and cover letter and apply for the position at this link.
Postdoctoral fellowships
The Great Lakes Water Innovation Engine, Great Lakes ReNEW, is hiring nine postdoctoral research fellows interested in working on the selective separation of nutrients, critical minerals, and energy from wastewater. This includes sensors and sensor networks for detection of these targets and testbeds for the validation of technologies developed.
Internships
Current’s Summer 2024 internship applications are closed.
Thank you to everyone who submitted an application for a summer internship at Current. Applications are now closed, but stay tuned for updates on Fall/Winter internships later this year!
