Welcome to the Sixth Annual World Water-Tech Innovation Summit

This year, the summit will address the need for greater collaboration between different stakeholders in developing

a more holistic approach to water management, innovation and financing.

We look forward to brainstorming best practice in technology development, piloting and adoption, and to

assessing some of today’s most innovative solutions and business models.

We’ll discuss exciting new business opportunities in international water and wastewater markets, including India,

Singapore, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Costa Rica and the US, and learn more about UK investment and

development in climate resilient infrastructure.

I’d like to thank our partner, the Department for International Trade, for their support in bringing such an important

group of international speakers and delegates to London, and for sponsoring the 1-1 meetings which will take

place throughout the day in the More London suite. If you haven’t yet checked your meeting schedule, please do
