Global Water Summit 2019 - Disruptive Solutions

DISRUPTIVE DESIGNS AT THE GLOBAL WATER SUMMIT 2019

On April 8th – 10th 2019 the Global Water Summit returns to London to discuss Disruptive Designs.

Disruption creates enormous opportunities as well as obstacles, and it offers real solutions to previously intractable problems. While barriers to trade grab the headlines, huge new markets are opening up in an unprecedented fashion. In the global water sector the story is collaboration and consolidation.

What the leaders of the water sector need to make the most of this new volatility is a clear global view and the right contacts. How are current trends going to play out, and how will it affect supply chains, revenue streams and business relationships? Where are the new opportunities, and who are the people you need to talk to? Where is the “fake news”?
