engineering, acclaimed for his practical and scientific expertise and his extensive experience in both academe and the

corporate world. He has given over 500 invited lectures and presentations in North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, the

Middle East and South America and has been profiled in many business and professional publications. He has also

received numerous honors from national and international scientific and engineering societies, government and research

organizations and NGOs. Among his honors are notable technical awards for excellence in scholarship from the

American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). In 2008, Dr. Boulos was the fourth honoree to receive the Ray R. Irani

Pride of Heritage Award from the Lebanese American Foundation for his generosity of spirit, dedication to the

community, and excellence in business and profession. He was named Alumni of the Year by the Lebanese American

University for extraordinary professional achievement. Dr. Boulos was awarded Honorary Diplomate status

(Hon.D.WRE) by the American Academy of Water Resources Engineers (AAWRE), the academy’s highest honor, for

attaining a position of eminence in the water resources engineering profession. He was the 14th recipient worldwide and

throughout the water industry.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

INNOVYZE (www.innovyze.com), Broomfield, Colorado 1996-present

Founder, Director, President, COO and Chief Innovation Officer (1996-present)

As Founder, President, COO and Chief Innovation Officer, Dr. Boulos is responsible for the company’s strategic vision

and leads the development and growth of Innovyze’s global wet infrastructure software technology portfolio. Under his

leadership, the firm has enjoyed remarkable growth (revenue CAGR of 29%) becoming one of the most recognized and

respected brands in the water industry. Innovyze now commands a global market share that could well be greater than

that of all major legacy competitors combined. Since its inception in May 1996, Innovyze has had an uninterrupted

twenty-year run of double-digit profitability (EBBITA CAGR of 33%, reaching 34% of MWH Global profits), with the

highest operating profit and EBBITA margins (over 60% of net and gross revenue) and ROI (over 400%) in the annals

of the AEC industry and a record low DSO (30 days). Innovyze clients include ten of the top ten ENR Water and

Wastewater design firms, 49 of the top 50 U.S. cities, six of the top ten cities in Canada, eight of the top ten cities in East

Asia, ten of the top ten cities in Australia, nine of the top ten cities in New Zealand, eight of the top ten cities in Belgium,

seven of the top ten cities in the Netherlands, six of the top ten cities in Italy, four of the top six cities in Spain, ten of the

top ten water utilities in the UK, all six Gulf Cooperation Council states, and more than 6,000 progressive clients in over

60 countries. These clients use Innovyze software to plan, manage, design, protect, operate and sustain their hydraulic

infrastructures.
