Well first of all we’ d like to introduce you to our readers.. What can you say about Katia? I’ m Katia, 20 years old, a second year Automatic student in USTHB of course. I would say I’ m an active girl who has a lot of ambitious dreams let’ s just keep it that way. Great! Now that we have an idea about you.. WET, what is it exactly?? It stands for“ Water Ecological Treatment”, and it is an INJAZ junior company created by a group of students from the university of Science and Technology Houari BOUMEDIENNE which protects natural resources by providing a simple and modern solution to recycle and save these resources, This process involves recycling water from the sink to filter it and reuse it at sanitary levels( flushing) to protect drinkable water on one side, exploit the wasted water and reduce the cost of bills( Ecological and economic impact).

Very impressive! Now we’ re all wondering about the beginning, the first moments of the newborn WET.. how was it for you and for the rest of the crew? The members of WET team are students of our university( USTHB) from different majors, levels and specialties, each of them has capacities and gifts that can integrate to each other, achieving success by sharing everything one has as one hand and I guess that’ s how we managed to be a team and the little WET was born just like that in a friendly lovely atmosphere. We’ ve also witnessed your presence in the entrepreneurship summer school last summer, tell us about that experience and its contribution to you as a person as well as to WET as a starting up company.. I got to say it was a beautiful adventure, we were among the winners of“ 24 hours challenge” and the lesson that we were lucky to learn was more valuable than the success itself
