The Mission will coincide with Israel’s International Water Conference Watec 2009 www.watec-israel.com Our South Australian Group will be led by Dr Ian Chessell, Chief Scientist for South Australia.

Key objectives of the mission include investigating Israeli expertise in:
The mission will also examine Israeli government policy success in promoting R&D activities in a range of related fields. It will create an opportunity for Australian organisations participating to increase their exposure to the Israeli and international market and help promote Australian companies to a global audience in attendance at the Watec conference.
The mission is also a great opportunity for participants to network and interact with leading figures from the water industry within Australia. The Chamber will organise group and individual meetings with a cross section of Israeli business, academic and political leaders.
The Mission intends to include meetings with the following:
