About World Water-tech Innovation Summit

We are planning to take a group of companies to the World Water-tech Innovation Summit in February 2026.

The World Water-Tech Innovation Summit is the leading global event for water leaders, investors, and innovators who want to build a more resilient water future.

As the sector moves into a new era of intelligence and transformation, the summit connects decision-makers from utilities, regulators, engineering firms, investors, big tech, technology providers, industrial water users, and start-ups worldwide. Together, they explore new technologies, form partnerships, and create value for the water industry.
