The concept of Water Identity combines culture, background, ethnicity, etc. with professional ambition. The aim is to explore what shapes us as water professionals, to define our common motives & goals and to connect through sharing. This way, the water community gains a greater understanding of the existing expertise and it can identify missing links for a water secure world.
This Pavilion is a joint effort with BlueTech Research. The Innovation Pavilion consists of 10 short-listed and specially selected companies and provides them with the opportunity to showcase the latest in cutting edge water technology. Selected participants come from around the globe and their technologies have huge potential in applications across both the utility and industrial sectors of the water industry.
The WQA respresents 2,500+ manufacturers, suppliers & dealers worldwide within the point of use and point of entry markets: residential, commercial, industrial and small community water treatment industries.
Together with a trade organisations, association and other national/governmental organisations, Aquatech organises different country pavilions where companies can build a stronger presence on the exhibition floor with the aim to create a national bond and combine marketing efforts.
