The Waters Weekly Wrap: June 11-17
A look back at the best stories published across all the Waters brands.

Exciting times here at Waters. For the 22nd iteration of the Waters Wavelength podcast, we had our first guest: Bill Murphy, CTO of Blackstone Group. Bill discusses what bothers him about the "business vs. technology" debate, what makes a good ─ and bad ─ vendor pitch, and what he looks for when hiring someone. The guys also discuss the US Open (golf, not tennis) and the NBA finals.
Lots of good stuff in there; give it a listen.
